Abstract
The changes in i.r. spectra of hemoglobin of rats exposed to gamma rad iation at dose levels of 2, 4 and 8 Gy were studied. The displacement of amides (amide 1 and amide 11) bands towards lower hemoglobin fluctu ation frequencies was noticed. The shifts were noticed at bands 1655 c m-1 and 1535 cm-1 respectively. Data were taken at different time peri ods from 0 to 21 days after exposure to radiation. The optical density of the exposed cases decreased in comparison with the control group.
