Abstract
The effects of chronic whole-body gamma-irradiation on plasma copper and magnesium were studied in the burro. Plasma Cu levels rose significantly prior to death whereas plasma Mg levels decreased. Normal plasma Cu levels varied from 112 to 184 [mu]g % and plasma Mg levels varied from 1.98 to 2.30 mg %.Keywords
