An analysis was performed to determine the mechanism of depressed maternal weight gain and its effect on perinatal lethality following prenatal exposure to diethylstilbestrol (DES). Pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats were dosed orally by gavage with DES or corn oil (control) during various intervals of
Trichloroacetonitrile (TCAN) is a by-product of the chlorine disinfection of water containing natural organic material. When administered by gavage to pregnant Long-Evans rats in a medium-chain triglyceride vehicle, tricaprylin oil (Tricap), at a volume of 10 ml/kg, TCAN induced fetal cardiovascular
The effects of a solvent extract of the surface soil of the Love Canal chemical dump site, Niagara Falls, New York, and of a natural extract, or leachate, which is drained from the canal for treatment, on the maternal health and fetal development were determined in rats. The solvent extract, which
The teratogenicity of carbamazepine (CBZ) was investigated in Sprague-Dawley CD rats at doses of 0, 200, 400, and 600 mg/kg administered by gavage in corn oil on days 7-18 of gestation in a dosage volume of 2 ml/kg. The CBZ-600 dose was maternally toxic in that dams in this group weighed 30.6% less
2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) exposure produces hydronephrosis and cleft palate in mice. These responses are correlated with disruption of expression of epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor ligands, primarily EGF and transforming growth factor-alpha (TGF-alpha), and altered epithelial
Timed-pregnant CD-1 outbred albino Swiss mice and CD Sprague-Dawley rats were administered hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ, USP) in corn oil by gavage during major organogenesis, Gestational Days (GD) 6 through 15. The doses administered were 0, 300, 1000, or 3000 mg/kg/day for mice and 0, 100, 300, or
Several halocarbons have been shown to cause full-litter resorption (FLR) in Fischer-344 rats when administered orally in corn oil. Since halocarbons often occur as contaminants of drinking water, we sought to determine the influence of the vehicle, aqueous versus lipid, on the developmental
The fetotoxic potential of endrin in the CD rat and CD-1 mouse was investigated. Endrin was administered as a solution in corn oil to groups of pregnant animals by gastric intubation at multiple dose levels throughout the period of organogenesis. The dams were sacrificed prior to term and the
Timed-pregnant CD rats and CD-1 mice were dosed by gavage with oxytetracycline hydrochloride (OXT) in corn oil on gestational days (gd) 6-15 (0, 1200, 1350, or 1500 mg/kg/day for rats; 0, 1325, 1670, or 2100 mg/kg/day for mice). Deaths among treated females occurred in a dose-related manner in all
Technical grade dinitrotoluene (DNT) was administered by gavage (po) to timed-pregnant Fischer 344 rats on Gestational Days (gd) 7 through 20. Mortality rates for the DNT (14, 35, 37.5, 75, 100, or 150 mg/kg/day) groups were 4.5, 7.7, 0.0, 0.0, 4.3, and 46.2% of treated females, respectively. No
Time-mated Sprague-Dawley rats were administered all-trans-retinoic acid (RA) dermally on gestational days 11 through 14 at three dosage levels (25, 100, and 250 mg/kg body weight). Dams administered ethylenethiourea (ETU) dermally on gestational days 11 to 12 or RA orally on day 12 were used to
In order to identify nonadditive effects on development, three compounds were combined using five dosages of each agent (a 5 x 5 x 5 full-bacterial design). Trichloroethylene (TCE), di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), and heptachlor (HEPT), in corn oil, were administered by gavage to Fischer-344 rats
The aims of this study were to determine the polyphone content of grape seed extract (GSE) and to assess their protective effects against zearalenone (ZEN)-induced maternal toxicity and in utero development defects in mice. Five groups of pregnant mice were treated orally during days 6-13 of
The teratogenic potential of the fungicide dinocap was evaluated in CD-1 mice. Pregnant mice were dosed by intubation with dinocap in corn oil on gestation days 7-16. Doses used were 0, 5, 10, 20, 40, 80, and 120 mg/kg/day, based on day 6 weight. Dams were killed on day 18, at which time fetuses
This report describes the preparation of a liquid diet for rat studies involving ethanol ingestion during gestation and lactation. The control diet was formulated to contain 30% of energy from casein including methionine at 0.5 mg/kcal, 11.5% of energy from corn oil, 58.5% of energy from dextrose,
