One hundred and twenty mice were divided into three experimental groups,drugged and
irradiated group(CTS+I),irradiated and
drugged group(I+CTS),drugged,
irradiated and drugged group(CTS+I+CTS).The mice in every group were divided into four groups,control group of only irradiation,the group of 125,250and 500mg/kg.The effect of Chitosan(CTS)on the survival rate,average survival time and protection index of every period was observed aftcr each group mice were exposed to 60GY Xray.The results showed that the CTS made the survival rate,the average survival time and the protection index
increased significantly.There were significant difference compared with control group.(P<005,P<001).The most effective one was the (CTS+I)group in all groups.The survival rate was 100%,80%and 70% in 10d,20d and 30d.And it was 70%,10% and 0% in the control group.The result suggested that the CTS can get a better cffect of absorbing Xray and caneel freeradical,drugged before irraidiation.So the suvival rate of mice were increased.
