| Abstract | ||
| In this study we assessed the effect of diagnostic X-ray on the production of the free radicals by determining the level of serum uric acid and plasma malondialdehyde for control and diabetic subjects in vitro. 40 blood samples have been collected, 20 from a control subjects and 20 from a type II diabetic subjects. The blood samples of control and diabetic have been divided into two groups, the first group not irradiated, and the second group irradiated by different doses (0.5-6.5 cGy), the level of uric acid and malondialdehyde (MDA) were determined for control and diabetic subjects before and after irradiation. Before irradiation, the results show that uric acid is significantly lower level in the diabetic subjects compared to the control subjects, and malondialdehyde is significantly higher level in diabetic subjects compared to the control subjects. After irradiation, the level of uric acid for control and diabetic subjects at dose (0.5 cGy) not change, but at the higher doses there was insignificant increase in the level of serum uric acid for both control and diabetic subjects, while the level of malondialdehyde (MDA) for control and diabetic subjects at dose (0.5 cGy) not change, but at the higher doses there was a significant decrease in the level of plasma malondialdehyde (MDA) for both control and diabetic subjects. | ||
