title: Effect of 60Co-Gamma whole body irradiation and treatment with radioprotector on the retention of 144Ce, in mice.
abstract: In animal experiments the effects of 7.5 Gy whole-body irradiation (LD50/30) and/or of radioprotecting compound (WR-2721) on the retention and elimination of 144Ce were investigated. It was stated that in the first three days there was an increase in the deposition of 144Ce after whole-body irradiation and upon treatment with radioprotective compound WR-2721.
