Cancer of the pancreas induced in the Syrian golden hamster.
A high incidence of pancreatic neoplasms was induced in Syrian golden hamsters following subcutaneous applications of diisopropanolnitrosamine (DIPN) once weekly for life. The tumor latency was as short as 15 weeks. In clinical and morphologic aspects the induced pancreatic tumors closely resembled those of humans.
