A study was made of change in the value of low-frequency and high- frequency resistance and dispersion of resistance of the liver of white rats irradiated in vitro with radioactive cobalt gamma rays and also the changes in the values of resistance and processes of autolysis of the surviving hepatic tissue of white mice irradiated during life with cobalt gamma rays. It was established that on irradiation of the surviving hepatic tissue at doses of 40000 and 50000 r an increase occurs in the dispersion of electrical resistance and the value of the low-frequency and high-frequency resistances. Intensification of autolytic processes in the surviving hepatic tissue irradiated at doses of 800 to 1000 r was detected. A direct correlation was established between intensification of the autolytic processes of surviving hepatic tissue of irradiated mice and an increase in the value of its low-frequency resistance. The value of the correlation coefficient of these two processes was equal for the 1st hour to 0.88, for the 2nd 0.86, and for the 3rd 0.81. (auth)
