OSTI ID:5536901
Protective and therapeutic administration of ADP against radiation at a high dose rate (130 to 280 R/min) increased survival of purebred mice and guinea pigs by 50 to 70% and caused faster and better recovery of hemopoiesis. With reduction of dose rate to 1 R/min, the radioprotective action of ADP was less marked: survival increased by 40% for mice and 25% for guinea pigs.
