Abstract
For twelve clinical strains genetically grouped together with Acnetinobacter radioresistens FO‐1^T^, the radiation sensitivity was measured. Their D~10~ values in γ‐ray irradiation under N~2~‐equilibrium were 0.24 to 0.93 kGy and about 1/10 to 1/3 of that of the radiation‐resistant strain FO‐1. The results showed that the genospecies A. radioresistens contained some radiation‐sensitive strains.
