Combined effects of thermal neutrons, gamma rays, red band light and neutron capture agents to the morphological indicators of cells line L929 in vitro

Abstract

ombined effect of neutron, gamma and light (red band) irradiation to morphological changes in the cell culture was investigated. It was found that in the presence of photosensitizing agents with neutron capture properties with molecular structure and also magnetically driven nano-complexes of both combined neutrons and red light causes around 93 % cell death of proliferating cells in vitro.
