    Abstract:
    The present paper deals with the effect of Damvar on hemopoiesis. The test of formation of hemopoietic splenic colonies (CFU-S) was used in mice, the peripheral blood picture and bone marrow differential after long-term administration of Damvar was tested in rats and dogs. The bone marrow cells from mice after a single dose of Damvar or cells incubated with Damvar in vitro showed no reduction of colony-forming activity. A single dose or repeated variable doses of Damvar, or combined administration of Damvar and Cyclophosphamide in some cases influenced the number of CFU-S in irradiated mice following transplantation of normal murine bone marrow cells. A number of CFU-S lower than 75% of the control count was never found. The application of Damvar to rats and dogs caused no significant changes in their blood pictures and bone marrows.
