The reaction of tue blood-forming organs to the action of small doses of phenylhydrazine was less pronounced in animals suffering radiation sickness; control animals showed high reticulocytosis and a more intense leucocyte reaction. The Artyus-Sakharov phenomenon appeared at a later date and ran a more severe course in rabbits suffering from radiation sickness than in control animals. Studies of blood protein fractions during the development of Artyus-Saknarov phenomenon showed a fall in the albumin and a rise in the globulin content during the period of infiltrate development. The blood protein composition had a tendency to normalize during the period of necrosis development. Shifts in protein fractions were intensified during tue period of necrosis in irradiated rabbits. The data indicate the disruption of the reactive capacities of an organism after suffering radiation sickness, even during the clinical health period, which may be linked to the presence of subsequent reactions.
