Cytogenetic Test Of Captan And Triethylenemelamine In Mouse Bone Marrow, Stephen M. Fry Apr 1977

Cytogenetic Test Of Captan And Triethylenemelamine In Mouse Bone Marrow, Stephen M. Fry

Honors Theses

Following a single non-toxic i.p. injection with 0.5 or 1.0 mg triethylenemelamine/kig a significant increase in chromosome aberrations in mouse bone marrow was observed 6, 12, 30, but not 54 h after treatment. A single i.p. injection with 250 mg captan/kig caused up to 68% lethality above controls, but no significant increase in chromosome aberrations after the same time intervals. One metacentric chromosome was observed 6, 30, and 54 h after captan treatment among 300, 300, and 101 metaphase spreads respectively, whereas none appeared in 1495 control spreads.
