Abstract
The carcinogenic activity of orthoaminoazotoluene against intestinal tissues of A/He mice was discovered. Intestinal tumors developed in 19 of 60 mice receiving the carcinogen subcutaneously. All tumors were located in the cecum and consisted of adenomas and mucus-secreting adenocarcinomas.
