| Abstract |
(For part 1, see CIS 80-1963). Benzene was administered orally to 8 groups of mice and a control group, including females, intact males, castrated males, and castrated males receiving testosterone. The sex-linked difference in sensitivity to benzene previously found disappered in the castrated males, and returned in those given testosterone subsequent to castration. |
