Abstract
Conclusion
Radioautographs of early neural tube of chick embryos treated with thymidine-H3 for varying intervals of time give evidence substantiating the concept of inter-kinetic migration of nuclei.

The period of DNA synthesis continues for at least 4 hours, but does not extend much beyond this time.
