Teratogenic Effect of Ethylene Glycol-Methyl Cellosolve Mixture in Rats.: I. Reproductive Damage

We investigated the reproductive damage and teratogenic effect of an ethylene glycol-methyl cellosolve mixture on gestating Wistar rats, which received a daily intraperitoneal dose of different concentration of the mixture on day 8 of gestation until day 20. In rats treated with the mixture the numb...
