Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4242500
Data are tabulated on the growth and breeding of rats maintained for three generations on a diet containing irradiated codfish and sweet potatoes. No significant differences in survival or body weight were noted. Dogs maintained for 21 months on a diet containing irradiated codfish and sweet potatoes appear to be thriving as well as those on a similar non-irradiated diet. (C.H.)
