Pregnant CF-1 mice were used to study the teratogenic effect of ketamine and cocaine, alone and in combination. The dose of ketamine was 50 mg/kg and that of cocaine was 20 mg/kg, given intravenously (tail) once daily (these doses of ketamine and cocaine are comparable to doses used by addicted huma

## Abstract The role of maternal toxicity in lovastatinβinduced developmental toxicity in rats was examined in a series of studies. The first study administered lovastatin at 100, 200, 400, or 800βmg/kg/day (mkd) orally to mated rats from Gestation Day (GD) 6 through 20. Maternal toxicity was obser
In an ongoing effort to delineate structure-activity relationships in the developmental toxicity of diphenyl ethers, we evaluated the maternal and developmental toxicity of 10 diphenyl ethers related to the herbicide nitrofen. All possible trichlorophenyl 4Π-nitrophenyl ethers were evaluated, as wer
## Abstract **BACKGROUND:** Inorganic arsenic, when given by injection to pregnant laboratory animals (mice, rats, hamsters), has been shown to induce malformations. Arsenic methylation may be a detoxification step, and diets deficient in protein are a poor source of methyl donors and may possibly
I studied the behavior of nursing house mice (Mus musculus) in captivity and used a two-by-two factorial design to test the hypothesis that the combination of a protected nest along with a chance for the intruders to retreat would improve the ability of resident females to defend their litters from
