[Combined effect of normobaric hyperoxia and vibration on the radiosensitivity of animals].

In experiments with hybrid mice (CBA X C57B1)F1 and F2(CBWA), a study was made of the combined effect of normobaric hyperoxia and vibration on sensitivity of the organism to gamma-radiation. A single and protracted (for 5 days, daily) vibration before irradiation aggravated acute radiation sickness. A modifying effect of hyperoxia on the development of the intestinal form of radiation sickness was the same as that observed under the effect of vibration. In the experiments with tetrahybrids, the combined effect of the two factors aggravated drastically the intestinal syndrome of acute radiation sickness (DMF = 1.24).
