Five of eight inbred Swiss mice given repeated injections of a small amount of benzene in olive oil developed subcutaneous sarcomas. One of the three tumors transplanted grew and is now maintained as transplants. Morphology of these tumors and histological changes in other organs are described. The present results indicate that benzene is capable of inducing solid malignant tumors in mice. No leukemia or lymphoma was observed among these experimental mice.
