Abstract
Cysteinamine, when administered prior to x-irradiation, has been shown to be very effective in increasing percentage of survival of CF1 mice given otherwise lethal doses of x-rays. It is also capable of preventing transient sterility in male mice during first 2 or 3 months following x-irradiation given to whole body or to testes alone.Keywords
