title: [The indices of free-radical oxidation in the umbilical cord blood and placenta of inhabitants of the Altai Territory].
abstract: Free-radical processes were studied in the umbilical blood and placenta of women from the regions of the Altai Territory, which were affected to different extents by nuclear tests on the Semipalatinsk grounds in 1949-1965. The data was obtained, which suggest changes of free-radical processes, from studied materials from women in labor in the regions most affected by the consequences of tests. The activity of erythrocytic superoxide dismutase was decreased, thus suggesting the formation of structural-functional defects of the erythrocytes. The data corresponds to the results obtained earlier when studying free-radical processes in the venous blood samples from female residents of the Altai Territory.
