Feron, V.J. (author), Kroes, R. (author), Centraal Instituut voor Voedingsonderzoek TNO (author)Wistar rats were exposed to atmospheres containing 0 (control) or 5000 ppm vinyl chloride monomer (VCM), 7 h/day, 5 days/week, for a period of 52 weeks. After 4, 13, 26 and 52 weeks each time 10 rats/sex/group were killed and subjected to extensive examinations.

Valeton, J.M. (author), van Norren, D. (author), Instituut voor Zintuigfysiologie TNO (author)A blue stimulus that is just visible in the presence of a yellow adapting field remains invisible for several seconds after the yellow field has been turned off. This 'transient tritanopia' is shown to exist already at the level of the b-wave of the electroretinogram. The experiments were done on rhesus monkeys and the results were qualitatively...article 1979

(author), Centraal Instituut voor Voedingsonderzoek TNO (author)The sub-acute inhalation toxicity of furfural was studied in Syrian golden hamsters. Four groups of ten males and ten females each were repeatedly exposed to furfural vapour at concentrations of 0, 20, 115 and 552 ppm (0, 77,448 and 2165 mg/m3 air) respectively for 6 hours/day, 5 days/week during a period of 13 weeks.

Bleichrodt, J.F. (author), Roos-Verheij, W.S.D. (author), Medisch Biologisch Laboratorium TNO (author)As in the induction of r mutants in bacteriophage T4 by ??-rays, the radiation-induced reversion of T4 amber mutants to wild-type was found to depend on the product of the DNA-repair gene x of the phage. Neither the efficiency of induction of r mutants nor the efficiency of reversion of ambers was enhanced by the presence of oxygen during...article 1979
