In Vivo Phenylacetic acid mustard (intraperitoneal injection; 0-20 mg/kg; 15 days) shows consistently 1.8-1.9 times greater antitumour potency thanCHL, it exhibits an ED15 value of 8.0 mg/kg[2]. Phenylacetic acid mustard (intraperitoneal injection; 0-20 mg/kg; single dose) cause 50% lethality at the dose 15.9 mg/kg[2]. Animal Model: Inbred male C3H/He mice[1] Dosage: 0 mg/kg; 5 mg/kg; 10 mg/kg; 20 mg/kg Administration: Intraperitoneal injection; 15 days Result: Exhibited anti-tumor activities in vivo.
