Applicant's summary and conclusion

Executive summary:

In examinations of the bone-marrow as well as germ cells of 2 strains of mice (ICR, CFLP) was found that NaSCN applied at a dose of 64 mg/kg daily on 3 consecutive days significantly decreases the frequency of the chromosome aberrations evoked by cyclophosphamide, from 68% to 52% in the bone-marrow cells ( α <1%) and from 25% to 16% in the germ cells (α < 5%). With regard to the medical and biological importance of the thiocyanates it seems promosing to subject these findings to a deeper treatment.
