Abstract
The experiments here recorded had three main objects :— (
a
) To investigate the effects of X-rays upon chick embryos of different ages irradiated
in ovo
(Part I). (
b
) To discover how far the destructive effect of radiation upon the tissues is due to a direct action of X-rays upon the individual cells, and how far it may be attributed to an indirect action resulting from physiological disturbance in the organism (Part II). (
c
) To determine if possible the nature of such indirect action (Part III). The authors are indebted to the Medical Research Council, by whom the expenses of these investigations were defrayed.
