A decrease in the synthesis of serum albumin in the liver of chicks was noted 5 to 6 hr aiter exposure to various doses of x radiation only in liver sliced from chicks in a state of shock at the time of death. In chicks that had survived shock resulting from doses of 1,000 r and in chicks exposed to 500 r a decrease in serum albumin synthesis was observed only during the acute stage of radiation sickness that occurred on the 3rd to the 12th day. Disturbances in the synthesis of serum albumin in the lower were followed by a decrease in concentration in the blood of irradiated chicks. Lowered food consumption during radiation sickness did not cause the decrease in the synthesis of serum albumin in the liver. (C.H.)
