EFFECTS OF HIGHER RADIATION DOSES ON THE DORMOUSE (in German)

Journal Article · · Z. Naturforsch
OSTI ID:4198026
After whole-body irradiation of dormice it was shown that the montality curves for the dose range 1,500 to 10,000 r and beyond have a plateau. Within these constancy regions there is increasing dose without effect on the average survival time (4.2 days). If the irradiation is conducted during hibernation, such a constancy region does not appear. For doses over 6,000 r a few animals died during the hibernating condition. For 10,000 r the damage to the organism is so great that more than hall of the animals did not survive a 3-week sleeping period. (tr-auth)
