THE EFFECT OF IONIZING RADIATION OF THE PROGENY IN IRRADIATION OF ANIMALS DURING THE LAST DAYS OF PREGNANCY (in Russian)

OSTI ID:4207038
The result of investigations demonstrated that a total single irradiation of dogs in a dose of 500 r during the last days of pregnancy leads to the development of acute radiation sickness in newborn puppies and causes their death soon after birth. Radiation sickness in newborn puppies as distinct from adult animals in a number of cases was associated with necrotic lesions of the urinary bladder, atelectasis of the lungs, and cerebral edema. Hemodynamic disturbances of the central nervous system play an important role in the appearance of atelectasis and of the cerebral edema. The course of radiation sickness in dogs irradiated during the last days of pregnancy was comparatively mild. Reaction of peripheral blood to irradiation was short and of peculiar nature. (auth)
