• Resumen

  • This work studies the effect of different X-rays doses on thyroid peroxidase activity in three groups of rabbits:

    normofunctioning, propylthiouracil-treated and TRH-treated. The results show a significant decrease in peroxidase activity in all animals irradiated with a single or fractionated X-rays dose, produced without pathological ultrastructural alterations in their thyroid glands.
