INCREASE OF ALDOLASE ACTIVITY IN BLOOD SERUM FOLLOWING IRRADIATION
Experiments showed that aldolase released from liver, and perhaps muscle cells damaged by irradiation, appears in whole blood and plasma 1 to 2 hr later. The determination of aldolase activity in serum may be used as an indication of radiation damage. Preliminary investigations on persons receiving radiotherapy for malignant tumors showed an increase in aldolase activity in whole blood that was several times greater than in blood plasma. (C.H.)
