ABSTRACT
The change in radiosensitivity of lactate dehydrogenase by glycerol was investigated spectrophotometrically. The irradiation doses varied between 0 to 4.5 x 105 r. Small amounts of glycerol (0.0005 vol.%) gave a maximum protective effect. This protective effect can be explained by a complex formation between glycerol and the metal ions present in the enzyme molecule.
