Abstract

The effects of low-energy infra-red laser radiation of varied power on hormonal and hematological status are examined in rats. It is shown that laser radiation impairs protein metabolism, the degree of impairment being dependent on the power of radiation. The use of laser radiation in nontherapeutic doses leads to hypoxia and inadequate functional activity of the insular apparatus.
