[Comparative study of the effect of nonionic detergents as inhibitors of respiration of tumor ascites cells].

The action of derivatives of polyoxyethylene oxide (triton X-100, triton X-305, tween 21, tween 40, tween 60, and tween 80) on respiration of Ehrlich's tumor and rats ovarium tumor cells involved inhibition of the cells respiration due to alteration of commonly uncorrelated with the distribution of detergents between the cell and the extracellular milieu.
