Milas L, et al

Studies were performed to determine whether diethyldithiocarbamate protects against radiation damage to ….., hair follicles, tissues in the leg responsible for leg contractures, and a fibrosarcoma (FSA) of C3Hf/Kam mice. In most experiments,…..A dose of 400 mg/kg DDC was less effective.
