Dose- and time-response relationships of triethylenemelamine-induced chromosomal aberrations in rat bone marrow cells. 1982

B S Levine, and E Pergament, and K Driscoll

Groups of 18 male Sprague-Dawley rats were administered single i.p. doses of 0.00, 0.125, 0.25 or 0.50 mg/kg of triethylenemelamine (TEM). 6 rats per treatment group were killed 6, 24 or 48 h after dosing, and bone marrow cells were collected and prepared for cytogenetic analysis. Under the present conditions, 0.25 mg/kg with sampling of bone marrow cells 24 h after treatment appeared to represent optimal conditions for using TEM as a positive control agent in the rat in vivo cytogenetic assay as described.

D001853 Bone Marrow The soft tissue filling the cavities of bones. Bone marrow exists in two types, yellow and red. Yellow marrow is found in the large cavities of large bones and consists mostly of fat cells and a few primitive blood cells. Red marrow is a hematopoietic tissue and is the site of production of erythrocytes and granular leukocytes. Bone marrow is made up of a framework of connective tissue containing branching fibers with the frame being filled with marrow cells.
