Abstract
The frequency of chromosome injuries in the bone marrow and the acute lethality were both used to assay the protective effects of cysteine hydrochloride and hypoxia in mice exposed to X-rays. The protective effect observed after administration of suboptimal amounts of cysteine and hypoxia were increased when cysteine and hypoxia treatments were combined.Keywords
