Abstract
Dosimetric characteristics of L-α-alanine dosemeter used for dosimetry of ^12C ion radiation have been studied. The experimental results indicate that the alanine dosemeter can be used to measure the ^12C ion radiation. In addition, dose effects of chromosome aberration dicentrics and cenric rings were studied after human peripheral blood being irradiated by ^12C ions; the best regression equation, Y = 0. 858 503D + 0. 361 5 ×10^-2D^2, was obtained within 8.0 Gy.
