In noninbred rats chloramphenicol and its optical isomer dextramycin diminished the blastomogenic effect of 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene on mammary glands. The protective effect was shown by a decreased tumor incidence at all periods of observation and an increase in the life span of rats and in the case of dextramycin this action consisted in a prolongation of the latent period of tumor emergence.
