Urea determination. Groups of female mice from the BALB/c strain, 13–15 g of body weight, were injected i.p. with 0.5, or 1, and/or 2 of Cdt. After 2 hours the mice were bled and the urea levels present in sera were determined. Each vertical bar represents the mean plus or minus the standard deviation value of samples from the results obtained with two experiments carried out with two independent groups of five mice each. Statistical differences between the injections were marked with asterisk ( ).
