Abstract

SUMMARY: 1. A technique for measuring the number of viable cells in a suspension of bone marrow by quantitative transplantation into supralethally irradiated mice has been described. 2. The technique was used to measure the radiation sensitivity of normal mouse bone marrow cells and yielded a result of 105 ± 24 rads as the D37 for marrow cells.
