“(_F_) _Bone, Muscle, and Nerve Regeneration and Bone
Transplantation Experiments._ From about September 1942 to about
December 1943 experiments were conducted at the Ravensbrueck
concentration camp, for the benefit of the German Armed Forces,
to study bone, muscle, and nerve regeneration, and bone
transplantation from one person to another. Sections of bones,
muscles, and nerves were removed from the subjects. As a result
of these operations, many victims suffered intense agony,
mutilation, and permanent disability. The defendants Karl
Brandt, Handloser, Rostock, Gebhardt, Rudolf Brandt, Oberheuser,
and Fischer are charged with special responsibility for and
participation in these crimes.
“(_G_) _Sea-Water Experiments._ From about July 1944 to about
September 1944 experiments were conducted at the Dachau
Concentration camp, for the benefit of the German Air Force and
Navy, to study various methods of making sea water drinkable.
The subjects were deprived of all food and given only chemically
processed sea water. Such experiments caused great pain and
suffering and resulted in serious bodily injury to the victims.
The defendants Karl Brandt, Handloser, Rostock, Schroeder,
Gebhardt, Rudolf Brandt, Mrugowsky, Poppendick, Sievers,
Becker-Freyseng, Schaefer, and Beiglboeck are charged with
special responsibility for and participation in these crimes.
“(_H_) _Epidemic Jaundice Experiments._ From about June 1943 to
about January 1945 experiments were conducted at the
Sachsenhausen and Natzweiler concentration camps, for the
benefit of the German Armed Forces, to investigate the causes
of, and inoculations against, epidemic jaundice. Experimental
subjects were deliberately infected with epidemic jaundice, some
of whom died as a result, and others were caused great pain and
suffering. The defendants Karl Brandt, Handloser, Rostock,
Schroeder, Gebhardt, Rudolf Brandt, Mrugowsky, Poppendick,
Sievers, Rose, and Becker-Freyseng are charged with special
responsibility for and participation in these crimes.
“(_I_) _Sterilization Experiments._ From about March 1941 to
about January 1945 sterilization experiments were conducted at
the Auschwitz and Ravensbrueck concentration camps, and other
places. The purpose of these experiments was to develop a method
of sterilization which would be suitable for sterilizing
millions of people with a minimum of time and effort. These
experiments were conducted by means of X-ray, surgery, and
various drugs. Thousands of victims were sterilized and thereby
suffered great mental and physical anguish. The defendants Karl
Brandt, Gebhardt, Rudolf Brandt, Mrugowsky, Poppendick, Brack,
Pokorny, and Oberheuser are charged with special responsibility
for and participation in these crimes.
