Radiosensitivity of the skin photoceptors was studied in frogs by means of a photometric method. A preparation of the isolated skin placed in Ringer solution was used as a test object. The light transparency coefficient prior to and after the irradiation was determined. As demonstrated, as distinct from light, irradiation with x and gamma rays (Co/sup 60/) in large doses does not cause statistically authentic changes of the light transparency coefficient of the isolated frog skin. It is suggested that ionizing radiation affects the melanophoric function of amphibia not directly, but through the nervous or endocrine system. (auth)
