Summary

50 mg/kg body weight of di-ethyl-nitrosamine was administered subcutaneously to 100 female and male O-20-mice once or twice weekly over a period of 4 weeks. Beside the well-known changes of the liver an increase of the rate of lung adenomas at significantly shortened latency period could be observed.

Zusammenfassung

100 weibliche und männliche O-20-Mäuse erhielten ein-bzw. zweimal wöchentlich 50 mg/kg KG Diäthylnitrosamin subcutan über 4 Wochen. Neben den bekannten Leberveränderungen zeigte sich die Zunahme der Lungenadenomrate bei erheblich verkürzter Latenzzeit.
