Abstract
This study reviews experiments on albino rats to determine the impact of very small explosions on survival and biological function. Tabular summaries of the rats' death and injury rates are provided (immediate death, short-term survival, long-term survival, complete survival) based on the size, position, and distance of the explosive. The study also examines and provides microscopoc-scale photographs of pathological changes to the lungs.
