## Abstract Until the 16th day of gestation the intravenous LD~50~ of Cd^2+^ in the pregnant WistarβPorton rat is higher, but not significantly different from that (1.8 mg Cd^2+^ per kg body weight) in nulliparous females. At 20 days it is 1.1 mg Cd^2+^ kg per body weight. This decrease is related
Mercuric mercury (Hg2+), when injected IV into the pregnant Wistar rat, is retained mainly in the maternal compartment and uptake by the conceptuses is small. Thus if the dose is based on total body weight, the maternal body burden, particularly in late gestation, is greater than the whole body burd
