Induction of tumors in female Donryu rats by a single administration of 1-propyl-1-nitrosourea.

Abstract
Three groups of female Donryu rats were given a single gastric intubation of 800, 400, or 200 mg/kg body weight of 1-propyl-1-nitrosourea and one group of female Donryu rats was given a single subcutaneous injection of 1-propyl-1-nitrosourea. The incidence of tumors was highest for mammary tumors and leukemia, and next for tumors of the ovary, thyroid, and adrenal glands, and in the digestive tract in rats given the chemical by oral administration. There were also scattered tumors in various other organs. Mammary and subcutaneous tumors were found in some rats given a subcutaneous injection of 1-propyl-1-nitrosourea.
