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
The developmental toxicity of thalidomide was evaluated using FETAX (Frog Embryo Teratogenesis Assay - Xenopus). Young X. Laevis embryos were exposed to this compound in each of two concentration-response experiments with and without differently induced exogenous metabolic activation systems (MASs)
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
