[Comparative analysis of radioprotective properties of some zootoxins].

Comparative study of radioprotective properties of venoms of the honeybee Apis mellifera, salamander Salamandra salamandra, and toad Bufo viridis was performed on a model of the bone marrow form of radiation disease in rats. It has been revealed that after repeated administrations at low doses, all studied venoms produce radioprotective effect. The state of radioresistance has been established to remain for 4 weeks after the end of the venom administration.
