TOXIC EFFECTS OF NICKEL SULPHATE ON EMBRYONIC MICE (EXPOSED MALE: NORMAL FEMALE)

Abstract

Mating between Nickel Sulphate treated male mice and normal female mice resulted in a decreased number of foetus, weight of foetus and length of foetus. But there is no accumulation of Nickel Sulphate in embryonic mice. The number of corpora lutea increased and fertility reduced in female mice. Our aim was to determine male mediated toxic affects of Nickel on embryonic mice.
