Abstract
N-Methyl-N-.beta.-chloroethyl-hydrazine-HCl and its benzaldehydhydrazone inhibit growth and multiplication of yeast cells. The DNA-synthesis is partially blocked. After removal of the substances the rate of this synthesis is increased more than that of RNA and protein. Both substances tested are more effective than simple alkylhydrazines.
