DEPENDENCE BETWEEN THE DOSE VALUE OF ANTENATAL IRRADIATION AND THE STATE OF THE HIGHER NERVOUS ACTIVITY (in Russian)
Antenatal irradiation from Co/sup 60/ provoked a disturbance of the higher nervous activity in adult animals. The intensity of changes depended upon the dose of irradiation. Doses of 50 and 200 r (single whole-body irradiation on the 12th day of embryogenesis) were compared. The larger dose produced a profound inhibition of the main nervous processes, impairment of their balance and inertness. In irradiation with 50 r the decrease of the general cortical tone was less marked. It was noted that during irradiation with a dose of 200 r, apart from disorders of the higher nervous activity, there was also a reduced viability, congenital abnormalities (anomalies of the eyes), and lower weight indices. Such derangements were not observed with a dose of 50 r. (auth)
