  • Title: [The radioprotective efficacy of karotinil under acute external and internal irradiation].
    Author: Beliaev IK, Zhuravlev VF, Stepanov SV, Zaraĭskiĭ AV.
    Journal: Radiobiologiia; 1992; 32(1):121-5. PubMed ID: 1565764.
    Abstract:
    Radioprotective, with respect to the whole body and reproductive system, geroprotective and anticarcinogenic properties of carotinyl after single acute external gamma-irradiation or exposure to tritium oxide have been revealed. It is concluded that the use of beta-carotene-containing substances is highly promising in preventing remote effects of chronic irradiation at low rates of absorbed doses, particularly the effects of incorporated radioactive substances.
