Abstract: | In experiments on (CBA X C57Bl)F1 mice irradiated with doses of 8-12 Gy a study was made of the effect of a mixture of polyI-polyC (2.5 mg/kg, 2 days before irradiation) and mexamine (30 mg/kg, 5 min before irradiation) on the survival rate of animals and the times of their death. It was shown that polyI-polyC potentiates the protective effect of mexamine not increasing its toxicity. The protective agents used in a combination decrease the "intestinal" death of irradiated animals while used separately fail to produce this effect. |
