Abstract
The micronuclei for rat tracheal epithelial cells were examined by in vitro exposure of radon. The rat tracheal epithelial cells were exposed in air–liquid interface culture (ALI culture), which was developed for the purpose of simulating in vivo conditions. The micronuclei induction gradually increased when the radon concentration was over 10 3 Bq/m 3. The absorbed dose in Gy was tried to convert from exposure concentration in Bq/m 3 by using alpha spectrum data. As a result, the micronucleus induction significantly increased when the total absorbed dose was over 100 mGy.
