The peculiarities in the course of skin allergic reactions in irradiated vaccinated animals were studied. Two types of skin allergic reaction changes were observed: intensification and inhibition. An intensification of skin allergic reactions was noted at the height of radiation sickness in 57% of vaccinated guinea pigs, which were subjected to single K-rav irradiation (100. 200, and 500 r). The intensification of the markedness of the specific allergy depended upon the appearance at this period in irradiated guinea pigs of nonspecific hyperergic reactions. A reduction of the intensity of the intensity of skin allergic reactions was observed in guinea pigs subjected to manifold irradiation with x rays. In acute affection of guinea pigs with polonium (0.1 mc/ kg) a sharp inhibition of the allergy took place. (auth)
