Abstract
The effect of carragheenan, a macrophage-toxic agent, on lethality of irradiated animals was studied in order to elucidate the possible participation of stromal elements on haemopoietic function. Treatment of mice with the agent resulted in an impaired differentiation of CFUc from CFUs which is considered to be responsible for the lower survival of the carragheenantreated animals after irradiation.
