DMBA–DNA adducts in DMBA-treated C3H mice

Days after [3H]- DMBA treatment Covalent binding, pmol/mg DNA
Percent fewer DMBA–DNA adducts in C3H.SW mice

[3H]DMBA was applied topically to the skin of mice. On the indicated day, the skin was removed and the covalent binding of [3H]DMBA to DNA was determined. ∗, significantly different at the P < 0.01 level.
