Inter-species comparison of the responses of mice and dogs to continuous 60Co γ-irradiation
Description
Young-adult, purebred, beagle dogs were exposed continuously, 22 hours/day, to 60Co γ-rays until they died. The daily dose rates ranged from 3.5 to 210 rad. At 3.5 rad/day the mean survival time was in excess of 1860 days (the study is still in progress), while at 210 rad/day mean survival time was 13 days. The data are compared to those from previously published information from similarly irradiated mice
