Abstract
Summary
Survival time was lengthened significantly in 3 transfer lines of mouse myeloid leukemia by treatment with either potassium arsenite, urethane, x-rays, or benzol in decreasing order of effectiveness. Two transfer lines of lymphoid leukemia grown in genetically identical hosts did not respond favorably to the same treatment with the chemical agents. Potassium arsenite was more effective than urethane on a weight basis, and in the effective dose range was tolerated better than urethane.
