From: Evaluation of the fullerene compound DF-1 as a radiation protector
The effects of DF-1 on survival during the first 30 days after lethal irradiation in mice. C57Bl6/Ncr mice were randomized into three groups: DF-1 200 mg/kg, DF-1 300 mg/kg, and vehicle control. DF-1 was delivered via intraperitoneal injection in a single dose of 15 minutes prior to irradiation at the indicated doses. Mice were observed and lethality was scored daily for the first 30 days. Kaplan Meier analysis was performed for mice receiving 8 Gy (A) and 9 Gy (B) of total body irradiation. Each treatment group contained at least 10 mice.
