[Chromatin breakdown in the white blood cells of rats during irradiation and in combined radiation injury under cystamine protection].

Abstract	The polydeoxyribonucleotide (PDN) level in leukocytes of peripheral blood of rats treated with cystamine adequately reflects the severity and outcome of radiation sickness. Preventive application of cystamine against the combined effect of ionizing radiation and heat decreased the PDN level in white blood cells but did not influence the survival of animals.
