Abstract
General anesthetics — chloroform, halothane, thiopental sodium, and sodium hydroxybutyrate (500 mg/kg) — lower the survival rate of mice irradiated with microwaves. Under the influence of ether, halothane, hexobarbital, or thiopental sodium, given immediately after irradiation, the time before the animals adopt the side position is reduced by 8–14% and the duration of the period in the side position is increased by 15–48% compared with the control.
