High level of chromosome aberrations has been determined in different types of somatic cells of monkeys which were subjected to general daily repeated low-capacity radiation (0.049-0.0078 Gy per a day) and accumulated summary doses of about 8.26-36.77 Gy. Long persistence of cytogenetic irradiation aftereffect (15-19 years of observation) has been shown. Differences are revealed in the frequency and types of chromosome aberrations in tissues with different level of cell proliferation: in bone marrow, peripheral blood lymphocytes and epithelial renal cells of irradiated monkeys.
