Abstract: The authors regret that a mistake occurred in Section 4.2.3 of the discussion, in the summary (Section 5) and in the abstract, when comparing their own results with data from the literature (Yasui 2004; Sedelnikova et al., 2002). The argumentation that every 125I-induced dsb is converted into a chromosome aberration is wrong. We made an incorrect calculation when correlating the decays per cell with the resulting chromosome aberrations. After reconsideration, our data (based on nine experiments) indicate that it takes on average 250 decays to induce one chromosome aberration (CA). Thus, the comparison of our CA data with the DSB data from Yasui [18] and Sedelnikova et al. [17] seems to be not adequate anymore. The authors would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused.
