OSTI ID:4190340

Results are reported from a study of the effect of transfusions of low- molecular preparation of polyvinylpyrrolidone on the course of acute radiation sickness in dogs and mice. The results confirm the high detoxicating power of this compound. Transfusions of polyvinylpyrrolidone diminished the development of a hemorrhagic syndrome but did not prevent the development of radiation anemia. The transfusions lessened the severity of the course of radiation sickness and prolonged the lives of the animals. (C.H.)
