Summary
A relationship is observed between the action of certain solvents on cancerogenesis and the affinity of histamine for cancerproducing substances. Tw-type solvents, which increase the tumoral incidence brought about by a chemical substance, intensify the reaction of histamine with this substance; while PEG-type solvents, which retard tumorogenesis, inhibit the reaction.
