Radiation protective effect of the breaking of secondary bonding in protein was examined with sodium benzoate, monosodium 1‐glutamate, 1‐arginine, and thiourea, and the behavior of viscosity against the protector was obtained. An experimental equation for the viscosity change is given by ηred = b − a log X , where ηred is the reduced viscosity of the solution, X is the protector concentration, and a and b are adjustable constants.
