title: [Effects of C1-C8 n-alcohols on the growth of 3T3 mouse fibroblasts].
abstract: The effect of C1-C8 n-alcohols on 3T3 cell growth is studied using flow cytofluorometry. Methanol and ethanol markedly lengthen either the duration of G1, or that of G2+ M when present in relatively higher doses. The effect of longer chains is always to increase G2+M significantly. This may be due to deviations depending on alcoholic chain length in membrane lipid fluidity.
