OSTI ID:4152163
The worker bee which has been subjected to gamma radiation from a Co/ sup 60/ source can withstand without apparent physical damage a dose of 18,000 r. At 90,000 r there is, however, appreciable damage. At a dose of 200,000 r, death is immediate in 100% of the cases. The physiological state of the bee plays an important role in determining its resistance to gamma radiation. (auth)
