New organogermanium and organosilicon compounds have been synthesized
and their pharmacological properties (toxicity, radioprotective activi
ty) have been studied. A notable decrease in the toxicity and a rather
large increase in the radioprotective activity of these new derivativ
es are noted in comparison with the starting organic compounds.
