Description/Abstract:
A NUMBER OF INVESTIGATORS HAVE BEEN INTERESTED IN THE URINARY EXCRETION OF AMINO-ACIDS FOLLOWING TOTAL-BODY IRRADIATION. THIS PRELIMINARY COMMUNICATION IS BASED ON THE QUANTITATIVE COLUMN PROCEDURE OF MOOR, SPACKMAN AND STEIN. IN JUNE 1958 EIGHT WORKMEN WERE ACCIDENTALLY EXPOSED TO TOTAL-BODY GAMMA AND NEUTRON RADIATION. THESE MEN WERE STUDIED. AMONG THE MOST INTERESTING RESULTS IS THE DECREASE IN URINARY EXCRETION OF FREE SERINE.
