Abstract:The present study aims at using the gene expression as biomarkers in the identification of the biological effects of low and high doses of ionizing radiation (X-ray) in white mice Mus musculus Balb/C, ages 4-6 weeks, weight 30-40 grams. Seventy-two white mice (36 males and 36 females) were divided into two groups; their whole body was exposed to 5 cGy (rad) and 100 cGy (rad) of X-ray radiation at a dose rate of 200 cGy/min, in addition to the control group. Total RNA was successfully isolated using Trizol meth… Show more
