ACUTE EFFECT OF PARATHION ON THE SEMINIFEROUS EPITHELIUM OF IMMATURE MICE

The present work aims at establishing the toxic effects on spermatogenesis of a single injection of the organophosphorous agropesticide Parathion, administered to immature male mice. Seven days old animals were injected intraperitoneally with 1/3 the LD50. Body and testicular weights were measured....
