Fllikor said. Cultures of the bact
eria have been supplied to lab
oratories in the United States and
England.
The radiation-resistant bact
eria studied to date areni uis-
ease producing, Dr Anderson em
phasized, and are easily killed
with heat.
Study of the microorganism
was nromDted when OSC scien
tists found the metabolism of the
bacteriam was apparently diff
erent from that of any' living
matter studied by science to date.
It is hoped this study will lead
to a better understanding of the
mechanism of radiation resist
ance and ultimately to ways of
protecting other living organisms
against radiation damage.
Work is being carried out by
Dr Anderson, Dr II D Raj, and
Miss Frances Duryea, OSC bact
eriologists, in cooperation with
Dr C II Wang of the chemistry
department.
