Cell killing and induction of micronuclei and mutation to 6-thioguanine resistance were studied in growing cultured mammalian cells (L5178Y) after exposure for a fixed period to low-dose-rate ..gamma.. rays and tritiated water (HTO) at comparable dose rates, from about 10 to 40 rad/hr. From the analysis of dose-response relationships, RBE values of HTO ..beta.. rays relative to ..gamma.. rays were calculated. These were 1.5 for cell killing, 2.0 for micronuclei, and 1.8 for mutation induction. Reported RBE values for HTO were reviewed.
