โœฆ Synopsis


A group of 88 newts, Triturus cristatus carnifex (Laurenti), was rendered totally anemic by administering acetylphenylhydrazine (APH) in the breeding water for 48 h at a concentration of 25 mgiliter. The course of erythron restoration was followed for 5 months, sacrificing four specimens per week and analyzing the blood and spleen hemopoietic tissue. The return to the normal values of the red blood cell count occurred through marked increases in concentration at fairly regular intervals, which is best explained by a discontinuous, rhythmic erythropoiesis. This fact is strictly correlated with the intermittent mitotic activity observed in the spleen and with the periodic appearance of large quantities of immature elements in the blood smears. The APH-induced synchronization of newt erythropoietic activity revealed the approximate length of each erythropoietic cycle to be 4 to 5 weeks and the erythropoietic life span to be 50 to 60 days.

Specimens of the newt, Triturus cristatus carnifex (Laurenti), rendered totally anemic, restore erythron by cyclic waves of erythropoietic activity that alternate with intervals of stasis.

Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to 450 ppm carbon monoxide (CO) for 6 h per day, 5 days per week for 33 days. The effect of CO on reticulocyte count, hematocrit, hemoglobin concentration, body weight and selected organ weights was measured. Exposure to CO caused a three-fold increase in the younges
