title: Autoradiographic evaluation of the cell cycle parameters of the various cells categories of the parotid, submandibular and sublingual glands of the suckling rat.
abstract: The evolution of the percentage of radioactive mitosis after a single thymidine-H3 injection, was determined for the various cell categories of the parotid, submandibular and sublingual glands of rats at 5th and 15th day of postnatal age. Estimates of the lengths of the S and the G2 + M/2 phases of the cell cycle were thus obtained, and averaged 9.8 and 2.7 hours, respectively, with extreme values of 9.3-11.2 and 1.6-3.2 hours.
