Freezing of the enteropathogenic bacterium Y. enterocolitica to -18.degree. and -75.degree. C caused 7 and 42% cell death, respectively, and 0.329 and 0.588 single-strand breaks/108 daltons of DNA, respectively; radiation to 1 D10 (10% cell survival) combined with freezing to 2.degree.-0.degree., -18.degree. and -75.degree. C induced 0.05, 0.75 and 5.04 single-strand breaks, respectively. The increase in the effectiveness of radiation with respect to the yield of single-strand breaks at -18.degree. and -75.degree. C is contrary to expectation and seems to be due to arrest of repair of single-strand breaks by these low temperatures.
