Abstract
Experimental animals, Bufo regularis, fed 0.2 mg Nnitrosomorpholine (NNM)/toad, 3 times/week for 3 months induced hepatocellular carcinoma in 11 out of 50 cases. Enhancement of liver tumor incidences (14 out of 50 cases) by NNM at the same level dose plus commercial vegetable oils used for deep fat frying of fallafel 0.2 ml/toad, 3 times/week for 3 months. Tumor incidences were detected in toads fed commercial vegetable ils used for deep fat frying of fallafel alone 0.2 ml/toad, 3 times/week for the same period (5 out of 50 cases). Tumors were not detected in toads which were fed with 0.2 ml/toad of unheated commercial vegetable oils, 3 times/week for 3 months.
