Abstract
Adm. of large doses of estradiol benzoate to mice caused elevated concs. of inorganic substances in the femurs and pelves. Testosterone propionate caused no change. Higher ash contents were observed in untreated [female][female] than in untreated [male][male], indicating the influence of the animals'' own hormones on skeletal growth.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
