Abstract

The analysis of cytogenetic anomaly dynamics in conditions of chronic low doze effect of ionizing irradiation in generations of genetically homogeneous laboratory line of mice CC57W/Mv and genetically heterogeneous populations of vole's species, trapped in alienation zone of Chernobyl's NPP in places with different levels of radio nuclide contamination in 1994-2001 was carried out. The data about the physiological adaptation to ionizing irradiation effects under age of linear mice and non-linearity of frequency changes of separate cytogenetic anomalies in generations as laboratory line of mice, and genetically heterogeneous populations of vole's species were obtained. Was supposed, that the number of non-linear effects of the ionizing irradiation in low doze range could be stipulated by comparability between the intensity of it's damage effects and the activation by it the polyfactor systems of anti oxidant ones, reparation events, and also elimination of defective cells.
