Abstract
Seven days-old white leghorn male chicks were exposed to 2.25 Gy whole body gamma radiations with and without vitamin E and studied for hist opathological changes in the spleen for a period of 28 days postirradi ation. The results reveal that the radiation-induced depletion of lymp hocytic population in the lymphoid region and the damage to the tissue architecture is comparatively less and reparation of the spleen faste r in the vitamin E treated irradiated chicks.
