MATERIALS AND METHODS AKR (males), C3H (females), and Swiss (males) were obtained from the Jackson Memorial Laboratory of Bar Harbor, Maine, immediately after weaning. They were fed ad lib. a pelleted mouse food to which, before pelleting, had been added (with the exception of the controls) 1 of 4 reducing agents: 1) cysteine hydrochloride, 2) 2-mercaptoethylamine hydrochloride, 3) 2, 2'-diaminodiethyl disulfide dihydrochloride, and 4) hydroxylamine hydrochloride; the first 3 compounds were added to the extent of 1% w, while the last was added at 1% w and 2% w. The pelleted foods were prepared in batches at intervals of 1 to 2 months. The average weight of the mice in each cage was determined monthly. In the case of the C3H and Swiss mice, the number of tumors were also recored; gross tumors were not seenWe should like to acknowledge our indebtedness to Dr. Leland Short and Dr. Charles Riggs for their assistance in the care of the mice and to Dr. Hardin B. Jones and Dr. John H. Lawrence for their support of the lengthy experiment conducted at the Donner Laboratory of the University of California, Berkeley, California.
