[Carcinogenic properties of diaphene NN].

Carcinogenic activity of diaphene NN was studied in female mice of line CC57W. Weekly subcutaneous injections of 40 mg of diaphene induced tumors in 65% of mice (leucoses and local sarcomas). Instillations of 40 mg of diaphene per os (3-5 times per week) induced tumors in 39% of mice. In control mice tumors were found in 38% of cases, including 36% of leucoses. It is concluded that diaphene NN shows an insignificant carcinogenic activity.

[Mechanism of the induction of asbestos mesotheliomas in the pleura of rats].

The first group of non-bred rats was injected intrapleurally 20 mg of benzene extracted chrysotil-asbestos dust in saline; the second group of rats was injected 20 mg of the same dust but with benz(a)pyrene absorbed on it (0.4 mg). Pleural mesotheliomas were observed in 48.57% of cases in the first group and in 41.37% of cases in the second one. The difference was not significant. There was no difference in the percentage of premesotheliomatous lesions. But, in the second group tumors of other organs were found. The role of asbestos pollution by carcinogenic hydrocarbons in the genesis of lung cancer and pleural mesothelioma is discussed.
