Abstract
Published studies of 9-L and RT-9 gliosarcoma have been done only in male rats and it is widely assumed that these tumors do not grow in female rats. In this study 9-L and RT-9 gliosarcoma was inoculated into the brains of male and female Fisher CD rats. The tumors grew with essentially the same incidence and survival time in both sexes, confirming that female rats can be used as well as male rats in experiments using RT-9 and 9-L gliosarcomas.Entities:
