[Effect of sweet pepper, enriched with selenium, on the transplantable Ehrlich carcinoma in mice].

Effect of sweet pepper enriched and non-enriched with Se on Ehrlich carcinoma growth at Balb/c mice was investigated. 1000 mg/kg of both preparations of sweet pepper (per os administration for mice of 9 months age) inhibited an early stage of tumour growth on 42-62% and 37-65% respectively. No effect on tumour growth was registered for 4 months mice.
