The phenotypic interaction of three mutant genes Ba, Ds and Wh are quantatively analysed for proportion of white areas in the coat. Each of the genes individually induces a characteristic amount of white spotting which is synergistically enhanced in combination. So much so, that the genotypes Ba+Ds+
The nocturnal pattern of Syrian hamster pineal melatonin synthesis is characterized by a 6-8 h lag period, followed by a late-night, short-duration peak in both N-acetyltransferase (NAT) activity and melatonin content. Administration of cycloheximide (20 mgkg body weight) given either at the time of
## Abstract To study the role of particle size of benzo (a) pyrene (BP) in the induction of respiratory tract tumours, goups of hamsters were given 52 weekly intratracheal instillations of fine (77% < 5.2 μm; 3% < 1.3 μan) or coarse (77 y 42 μm; 0% < 10 μm) BP particles suspended in gelatin‐0.9% Na
