AI Article Synopsis

  • The study focused on the effects of a tularemic live dry vaccine on Wistar rats exposed to whole-body X irradiation.
  • It found that immunized rats experienced significantly less cytogenetic disturbance when exposed to X-ray doses of 0.5 Gy and 1.0 Gy compared to nonimmunized rats.
  • This suggests that the vaccine may provide some protective benefits against the mutagenic effects of radiation.

Article Abstract

Immunization with tularemic live dry vaccine administered singularly to Wistar rats skin has been studied for its effect on mutagenicity induced after whole-body X irradiation. The analysis has shown that cytogenetic disturbance induced after X irradiation with doses of 0.5 Gy and 1.0 Gy in immunized animals significantly decreases as compared to nonimmunized animals.
