Induction of malignant bone tumors in rats by 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-nitrosourea.
Forty male MRC-W rats were treated chronically with 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-nitrosourea in drinking water (total dose, 330 mg/rat). Fifteen rats (38%) developed osteogenic osteosarcomas or… Expand

Effect of sodium ascorbate on tumor induction in rats treated with morpholine and sodium nitrite, and with nitrosomorpholine.
Groups of male MRC Wistar rats were treated for 2 years either with morpholine (10 g/kg food) together with sodium nitrite (3 g/l drinking water) or with N-nitrosomorpholine (NM, 0.15g/l drinking… Expand
