Abstract
Purpose
In order to achieve the goal of rapid response, effective disposal and protection of life of large-scale radiation events, how to establish the uniform standard curve of biological dose estimation for chromosome aberration analysis becomes an urgent need.
Methods
Chromosomal aberrations with different irradiation dose rates were used to analyze the biological dose curve and the share of the “dicentric + ring” caused by the dose rate at each dose point. The dose-rate effect of 60Co-rays on peripheral blood lymphocytes was analyzed by statistical method .
Results
Irradiation dose is dominant ; At each dose point, “(dicentric chromosome + centric rings) /cell” is proportional to "dose rate", that is, Y = k X + b;Between 1-5Gy dose, “(dicentric chromosome + centric rings) /Cell ” holds a quadratic linear relationship with dose rate, that is,y = ax2 + bx + c.
Conclusion
The fraction of “dicentric + ring” caused by dose rate was calculated, if “Dose rate” is Z Gy•min− 1, it corresponds to an increase in linear relationships. Biological dose estimation curve :Y = 3.318 × 10− 3+2.0541 × 10− 2 x + 7.1721 × 10− 2x2(1.16Gy•min− 1༛R2 = 0.9997)(3).Dose rate :Y Dose rate = 1.2534 × 10− 2 x 2+6.6164 × 10− 2 x -2.732 × 10− 3༈0.01Gy•min− 1༛R2 = 0.999༉(1).The estimated dose is formula (3) – (1.16-Z) × formula (1).
