The compensatory capacities of the blood system were studied in rats and mice concurrently exposed to short-term gamma-radiation in the dose 0.9 Gy that could not cause radiation disease and to 18-day emotional stress. The compensatory capacities of the hemopoietic system were evaluated by the regenerative processes during additional gamma-radiation in a dose of 5 Gy after termination of stress exposure. Preradiation in a dose of 0.9 Gy was found to exert an inhibitory effect on the compensatory capacities of hematopoiesis in emotional stress.
