THE EFFECT OF DEUTERIUM OXIDE ON SURVIVAL OF MICE WITH ASCITES TUMOR

Journal Article · · Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (Netherlands)

The effect of deuterium oxide (D/sub 2/O) on the survival of mice inoculated with Ehrlich's mouse ascites tumor has been studied. Mice maintained on 25% and 30% D/sub 2/O drinking water showed an improved survival time of about 6 days, whereas 40% D/sub 2/O drinking water had no effect on survival time. The effect is interpreted in terms of inhibition of tumor cell division and systemic toxicity. (auth)
