Cells: The stable cell line being investigated.

SCE/Chr: Median number of sister chromatid exchanges observed per chromosome (sister chromatid pair).

EGFP: Relative levels of fluorescence for cells expressing RecG and/or EGFP, relative to cells not expressing EGFP.

% EGFP+: The fraction of cells in a population with above-background green fluorescence due to expression of EGFP.

HPF: The number of high powered microscope fields scored.

Xomes: The total number of sister chromatid pairs scored for exchanges.
