g ns toxic substances, which play a definite role in the pathogenesis of radiation sickness. Transfusion of blood of irradiated animals provokes in the recipient shifts in the morphological and biochemical composition of the blood, which are similar to those occurring after the action of low doses of irradiation. Upon the introduction of spleen and liver extracts of irradiated animals, the toxic effect is manifested without the diminution of the leukocyte count. No hypotensive substances were revealed. The blood composition changes depend mainly upon the action on the hematopoietic organs, in view of the fact that the changes observed are stable and develop in definite periods. The toxicity effect is manifested more regularly in irradiation of the animals with high doses. (auth)
