DOI:https://doi.org/10.2307/3571537· OSTI ID:4635289
Adenalectomized rats, sham-adrenalectomixed rats, and adrebalectomized rats injected with hydrocortisone were exposed to 500 r of x irradiation. Twenty-four-hour urine samples were collected for four days before exposure and (or five days after exposure to x irradiation). Samples of blood from the tail veins were also collected at various intervals. The degree of creatinuria was assessed by means of the creatine/creatinine ratio as well as by the that the presence of the adrenal gland is not necessary prerequisite for the production of radiation-induced creatinuria.
