Description

The early pre-implantation embryos for immuno-electron-optical analysis and autoradiographic analysis of RNA synthesis were obtained after killing super-ovulated cows which had been bred in various ionizing radiation zones after the Chernobyl accident. The characteristics of zone III (the most contaminated with 137Cs) were as follows: soil 20-40 Ci/km2, milk 1.2-5.1 x 10-8 nCi/kg. Clinical examination of the sex organs of cows bred in radiation zone III revealed no defects in the organs. The frequency of defective and fragmented embryos did not exceed the general standard from the population of embryos obtained. (Z.S). 1 tab., 5 refs
