This study was undertaken to try a newly synthesized compound (1-acetyl hydrazinyl thiophenyl formamidine dihydro-chloride) as a chemical radioprotector and to observe its effects on adrenal catecholamine and protein bound iodine (PBI). After whole-body irradiation, the catecholamine and serum PBI levels decreased significantly but treatment with the drug before irradiation increased the same. The whole-body irradiation resulted in a 50% mortality within a fortnight whereas the use of the drug prevented it.

Diese Untersuchung wurde unternommen, um eine neu synthetisierte Verbindung (1-Azetyl Hydrazinyl Thiophenyl Formamidin Dihydrochlorid) als strahlenschützende Substanz zu prüfen und ihren Effekt auf Nebennierenrinden-Katecholamin und das eiweißgebundene Jod (PBI) zu beobachten. Nach einer Ganzkörperbestrahlung sanken die Katecholamin- und Serum-PBI-Spiegel signifikant, während die Verabreichung der Verbindung vor der Bestrahlung sie dagegen erhöhte. Die Ganzkörperbestrahlung bewirkte eine 50%ige Mortalität innerhalb von zwei Wochen, während die Verwendung dieser Verbindung dies verhinderte.
