Inbred female CaH/St mice exhibit the normal incidence of spontaneous mammary adenocarcinoma of 80-100% if they are maintained on a standard commercial laboratory diet containing 0.15 ppm of selenium with meat and dried skimmed milk as major sources of protein. The tumor incidence drops to 42% if an
The inhibitory effect of selenium on the genesis of spontaneous mammary tumors in C3H mice is statistically significant even at toxic levels of selenium (5 and 15 ppm of Se in form of selenite added to the supply water), no evidence for stimulation of tumor growth by selenium has been obtained. Arse
