Biochemical effects of x-radiation on the retina of the albino rabbit
- 1. New York Eye and Ear Infirmary, NY
Description
The effects of x radiation on the oxygen consumption, anaerobic glycolysis, cytochrome oxidase, succinic, lactic, and malic dehydrogenase activities of the rabbit retina were investigated. These activities were inhibited by over 50 percent when 7000 rad were administered. The only exception was anaerobic glycolysis, which was only inhibited by 13 percent. With higher doses of x radiation, the toxic effects rose proportionately with the dose
