Initial experiments show that MnCl2 is a promising safe and effective prophylactic countermeasure against ARS. MRI data support the systemic distribution of MnCl2 which is needed in order to protect multiple tissues in the body. The pathology data in bone marrow and the brain support faster recovery from radiation exposure in the treated animals and decreased organ damage.
