Description

The value of K for mouse Ehrlich ascites cells depends on their phase of growth. Cells were grown either in vitro or in vivo but were x-irradiated and assayed in vitro. K was 1.7 times greater for cells in the exponential phase of growth than for those in plateau phase irrespective of the pre-irradiation growth conditions. (U.K.)
