Abstract
Total glycolysis and glyoxalase activity were almost completely separated by [beta]+[gamma] radiation at low temp., since glyoxalase is insensitive to radiation. Rat retina was more sensitive to radiation than any other tissue. Glycolysis was suppressed in 1-2 hrs. by irradiation at low temp. Glyoxalase activity of tumor tissues was high and of same order of magnitude as anaerobic glycolysis.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
