Abstract
Bounds are given for crude survival probabilities when marginal distributions of the latent times T1, ..., Tn and the distribution of the value T = min(T1, ..., Tn) fixed. The application of these bounds to statistical analysis of the survival data resulting from certain kind of biological experiments is considered.
