Popis: The effectiveness of newly synthesised thiol chelating agents has been studied to reduce 210 Po in organs and tissues of rats. From four derivatives of meso-2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) only the ethoxyethyl diester (DEEDMS) was efficient in decreasing total activity in the analysed tissues (to 80% of control animals) when repeated subcutaneous treatment started 1 h after intravenous injection of 210 Po. The most pronounced effect was achieved with three derivatives of dithiocarbamate: N,N'-dimethyl-(MeTTC), N,N'-diethyl-(EtTrC), N,N'-di(2-hydroxyethyl)ethylenediamine-N,N'-bisdithiocarbamate (HOEtTTC). When treatment started immediately after 210 Po administration, the total content of 210 Po in analysed tissues was reduced to 74-41% of control values
