The indicator approach to evaluation of effects of radioprotective agents is substantiated. A correlation was obtained between hypoxic and radioprotective effects of mexamine, given 5 min prior to irradiation, in rat bone marrow cells in vivo. An evaluation was made of both mean effectiveness of varying degrees of hypoxia and effectiveness in an individual animal on the basis of the DMF criterion.
