Abstract
The influence of cell concentration on the radiation sensitivity of diploid yeast cells is tested. At high cell concentrations the oxygen consumption by maintenance energy metabolism of the cells leads to anoxia under certain irradiation conditions. In this way the radiation sensitivity is reduced. The same effect may influence the liquid holding repair which is dependent on the energy flux in the cell. Inhibition of respiration in the cell due to anoxia again leads to an inhibition of liquid holding repair in the cell.
