RESPONSE IN THE PERIPHERAL BLOOD OF TOTAL-BODY IRRADIATED CHICKENS FOLLOWING OXYTETRACYCLINE (OTC) ADMINISTRATION

Journal Article · · Nature
OSTI ID:4810813
Experimental results show that oxytetracycline has a positive effect on recovery from post-irradiation leucopenia. Oxytetracycline also manifests itself by suppressing the areas of active tissue of the liver while it causes an activation of follicles in the spleen. The reactions in the liver and the spleen may be viewed from the fact that blood formation in chickens does not take place in all hematopoietic organs with equal intensity, therefore the hematopoietic- stimulating substances may assert themselves as activators at one time and in a paradoxical manner at another time.
