    Journal: Radiats Biol Radioecol; 2012; 52(1):39-43. PubMed ID: 22568012.
    Abstract:
    The prolonged ionizing radiation exposure at the absorbed doze rate of 2.6 mGy/hour and the total accumulated doze of about 20 cGy during different periods of the intrauterine development caused disorders of a coordinated development of organs and the decrease of endurance in physical activity in the postnatal ontogenesis of the irradiated posterity. The results obtained are comparable to the consequences of irradiation exposure of the fetus at the accumulated doze of 125 cGy during all stages of pregnancy and give grounds for considering radiation exposure at the above-mentioned rate (20 cGy) as a biologically significant factor.
