Abstract :
The process of recovery from ultrawideband pulse irradiation was studied in isolated human buccal epithelium cells. The influence of irradiation was registered by the effect of chromatin condensation. Chromatin condensation was determined in cell nuclei by the method of heterochromatin granules counting in orcein stained cells. Irradiation induced chromatin condensation. After irradiation at the intensity of 1 mW/sm2 cell recovery was observed after 1 hour. After 2 hours of recovery the level of heterochromatinization became close to the control level. After irradiation at the intensity of 10 mW/sm2 no full recovery was observed.
