title: [The effect of low doses of radiation on the glutathione status in children and adults after the Chernobyl Atomic Electric Power Station accident].
abstract: A level of glutathione in the blood plasma of human population exposed to low-dose radiation after the Chernobyl accident was studied; a complicated character of dose dependence was shown. The response of the glutathione system to low and high radiation doses is different in the children living in the radionuclide-contaminated areas and in the participants of the elimination works.
