Biological Studies on the Rous Sarcoma Virus. IV. Interpretation of Tumor-Response Data Involving One Inoculation Site per Chicken

Abstract

Typical data are shown and principles of their analysis are illustrated for biological responses to the Rous sarcoma virus involving one subcutaneous inoculation site on each test chicken. Procedures illustrated include tumor responses of both the measurable (latent-period) and quantal (tumor-incidence) types, (a) when the chicken susceptibilities are homogeneous, and (b) when they are heterogeneous.
