[Study of the antiradiation properties of contrykal in experiments on mice]

From experiments in mice exposed to gamma-rays (LD95 and LD91) it is shown that single intraperitoneal administration of contrykal (30-50 units per animal) elicits a slight (20-30%) radioprotective and therapeutic effect. An insignificant therapeutic effect is also registered after repeated injections of the drug at the height of radiation sickness (on the 5th-20th days).
