Thesis (M.Sc.D.)--Boston University School of Graduate Dentistry, 1972. (Oral surgery) / Bibliography included. / Sixty male golden Syrian hamsters (Lakeview Hamster Colony,
Newfield, New Jersey), three months of age, were divided into five
equal experimental groups and fed a standard laboratory diet. The
animals of Group I (Control) received triweekly application of heavy
mineral oil (USP) into the right buccal pouch with a No. 4 camel's
hair brush for 16 weeks. The animals of Groups II, III, IV, and V
received triweekly topical application of 7-12-dimethylbenzanthracene
(DMBA) at a concentration of 0.5% w/v in heavy mineral oil (USP),
according to the technic of Salley (J. Dent. Res., 33:253-262, 1954).
In this manner about 0.2 ml. of solution was deposited in the pouch
at each painting, containing 1 mg. of DMBA. Animals in Group III,
in addition to the application of DMBA, received a triweekly S.C. ,
injection into the groin of 2.5 mg. of cortisone acetate (Premo
Pharmaceutical Laboratory, Inc., Hackensack, New Jersey). [TRUNCATED]
