THE EFFECTS OF IONIZING RADIATIONS ON THE BIOCHEMISTRY OF MAMMALIAN TISSUES.

Abstract

Contents: The effects of Ionizing Radiations on the Biochemistry of Mammalian Tissues: (1) Studies on the Effect of X-irradiation on Coenzyme A Levels of the Livers of Mice; (2) Influence of X-irradiation on the Development of a Detoxification System for Phosphorothioates in the Livers of Rats; Pharmacological or Toxicological Compounds as Protective or Therapeutic Agents Against Radiation Injury in Experimental Animals: (1) The Influence of Various Chemical Compounds on Radiation Lethality in Mice; (2) Dose-Mortality Relationships for Several Radioprotective Agents; (3) Studies on the Relationship Between Spleen Oxygen Tension and Radioprotection in Mice; (4) Effects of Acute and Chronic Exposure to Hyperbaric Oxygen on the Survival of Normal and X-irradiated Animals; The Influence of Low Levels of Gamma and Fast Neutron Irradiation on the Life Span of Animals: Application of Radiation-Induced Changes in Adenosine Triphosphatase Activity of Hematopoietic Tissues to a Study of Chronic Gamma Irradiation and the Influence of Various Factors on Acute Radiation Injury.
