ABSTRACT
Due to the improvement of field method of oxygen consumption measuring, the instrument to realize simultaneous determination of micromammals heat production has been elaborated. These investigations estimated that the irradiation of mice at the dose of 3 mGy/hour caused the increase of heat production for 11.4%. Injection of radioprotectors increases the animals' heat production with the simultaneous decrease of oxygen consumption.

It has been shown that eyes instillation of pyridoxine hydrochloride low doses during 20 days affects the vision and tonographic characteristics of patients with glaucoma and earlier stage of cataract. Light eyes have been shown to be more sensitive to treatment than dark ones. From 10 to 40 min after emoxipin or pyridoxine hydrochloride low doses instillation, some pupil constriction has been registered. The data obtained suggest that low doses of this substances affect eyes cholinoreactive structures and may be useful for treatment glaucoma and early stage cataract.
