The potential teratogenic hazard of five compounds was evaluated using the Frog Embryo Teratogenesis Assay-Xenopus (FETAX) and a metabolic activation system. Embryos of the South African clawed frog, Xenopus laevis, were exposed to (i) three compounds suspected to be proteratogenic in mammalian test

The Frog Embryo Teratogenesis Assay-Xenopus (FETAX) was used to assess the teratogenic potential of four solvents. Embryos of the South African clawed frog, Xenopus laevis, were exposed for 96 h to ethanol, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), formamide or glycerol formal. Exposure groups were maintained usin

A reconstituted water medium was developed for use in the Frog Embryo Teratogenesis Assay--Xenopus (FETAX). FETAX solution was then tested on three compounds with known mammalian teratogenicity (ethanol, caffeine, and 5-fluorouracil) as was a non-teratogen (saccharin). The results obtained were then
