Abstract
Susceptibility of carcinogen (benzidine hydrochloride) was checked by degranulation technique in rats of three different (young, adult and old) age groups. The dose response curves of these three different groups showed different per cent degranulation. Comparative data of dose response of benzidine hydrochloride observed on the basis of RNA/Protein ratio basis showed that old animals were more susceptible to carcinogens than young and adult animals.
