The effect of oxygen on the viability of cells of Escherichia coliexposed to ionizing radiation has been much studied (Johansen et al. 1974, Quintilliani 1979, Ewing and Powers 1980). The increased radiosensitivity in the presence of oxygen, approximately a three-fold decrease in dose required to reach a given survival, has been demonstrated repeatedly. No systematic study of the effect of experimental variation on the measurement of the oxygen effect is available. That cell survival is influenced by the incubation and media experiences of the cells prior to irradiation, by the plating medium employed, and the temperature of incubation after radiation exposure has been noted. We report here that rapid dilution of an exponentially growing E. coliculture at 37 C into ice-bath temperature buffer greatly increases cell sensitivity to y-radiation and diminishes the differential effect of oxygen on survival. The strains used were AB1 157 (thr-1 ara-14 leuB6 del gp+ proA62 lacY1 tsx33 sup E44 galk2 lambda rac-hisG4 rfbDl rpsL31 kdgK51 xy115 mtl-1 argE3 thi-1) and the ada mutants of AB1157, received from Dr Barbara Bachman, Coli Genetic Stock Center of Yale University, and W1485, a non-lysogenic (lambda) derivative of Wl, the original K-12 strain. Cells were grown in Davis minimal medium (DM; Lederberg 1950) or M9 medium (Miller 1972) supplemented with the required amino acids (50 µg ml-I) and vitamins (1. 0µgml-1). DM or M9 salt solutions were used for dilutions. In most experiments with M9 medium and buffer the MgSO4 concentration was increased to 5 mm. Exponentially growing cultures with aeration at 37 C were studied. Growth was followed by absorbance at 550 nm. Cell numbers were measured by diluting in buffer and plating in top agar (6 g 1-1) onto LB plates (Miller 1972) with 10 g 1-1 agar. Cold shock was produced by a quick 50-fold or more dilution from a 37 C culture into ice-cold buffer. Shocked cells were kept at ice-bath temperature unless otherwise stated until irradiation or plating. Cells which were not shocked were diluted in a similar manner into buffer at room temperature (22-23 C) and either held at that temperature or cooled slowly. Cells to be irradiated were placed in ice-cold or room temperature 1.0 ml volumetric flasks. Oxic cell suspensions were in buffers that had been equilibrated with air at 22-23 C. Anoxia was produced by bubbling with argon (99.999 per cent) for 10 min, the flasks were then capped and sealed. Irradiation at 22-23 C was from a" Co source (Gamma Beam 150, Atomic Energy of Canada, Ltd) at dose rates of 7.5-90 Gy min-1. The survival, in the presence and absence of oxygen, of cells of strain AB 1157 after exposure to 4000 Gy of y-radiation is illustrated in figure 1. These cells were grown at 37 C, removed to room temperature (22-23 C), diluted and irradiated at that temperature. Those cells had an oxygen enhancement ratio (oer) of 2.9, which it typical of cultures handled in this way in this laboratory. Similar observations are reported in the literature (Quintilliani 1979). Survival of cells which were rapidly diluted into ice-cold buffer and irradiated in the presence/absence of
