Abstract
The dynamics of behavioral indices of male albino rats were examined in the open field test. Total gamma irradiation (absorbed dose 5 Gy) resulted in decreases in the indices of all types of motor and orientational/research activity and increased emotional tension. The treatment of animals with the chitin/protein and carotene-tocopherol complexes (0.35 and .6.67 g/kg, respectively) before and after irradiation, due to the antioxidant and enterosorbent properties of these complexes, significantly moderated the negative effects of irradiation and provided a clear trend toward normalization of the measured behavioral indices (period of observation 30 days).
