  • Title: [Effect of neutron and gamma radiation on physical endurance of rats in the swimming test].
    Author: Smajda B.
    Journal: Radiobiologiia; 1991; 31(2):278-81. PubMed ID: 2034810.
    Abstract:
    Three groups of adult male Wistar rats were exposed to neutrons (a single dose of 2 Gy) and gamma radiation (a continuous dose of 6 Gy delivered within 10.5 days) and a combination of both types of radiation. The physical fitness of irradiated and control rats was measured using a forced swimming test in the course and after the termination of the irradiation. A marked decrease in the physical fitness of all irradiated animals was followed by its normalization 3 weeks after irradiation.
