Following injection of Sr/sup 89/ + Sr/sup 90/ malignant tumors developed in rabbits, in the skeleton and in the bone marrow, and in the organs immediately in contact with the radiation. There was also a marked fornnation of taiors in the endocrine organs not exposed to the immediate action of ionizing radiation. With the entrance into the body of the optimum blastomogenic amount of the mixture of Sr/sup 89/ + Sr/sup 90/ osteosarcomata and leucoses developed in rats and in rabbits with the same dose, with the same frequency, and in the same period. For example, with parenteral injection in rats of the mixture Sr/ sup 89/ + 8r/sup 90/ of 0.8 to 1.0 mu c/g osteosarcomata developed in 11 out of 14 rats and in 10 out of 15 rabbits which lived for 200 days. The vast majority of osteosarcomata in rabbits, the same as in rats, develops in the interval from the 200th to the 400th day. (auth)
