Abstract

Details are given of the distribution of nucleated bone marrow cells in 17 parts of the skeleton of laboratory hybrid mice (CBA x C57BL) weighing 18–21 g. The content of bone marrow in the bones of the spine, head, lower limb, pelvis, upper limb, sternum, and ribs was 33.7, 19.6, 11.9, 8.2, and 9.0% respectively of the total.
