In order to identify nonadditive effects on development, three compounds were combined using five dosages of each agent (a 5 x 5 x 5 full-bacterial design). Trichloroethylene (TCE), di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), and heptachlor (HEPT), in corn oil, were administered by gavage to Fischer-344 rats

To clarify the relationship between neural crest cells and various developmental eye abnormalities, pregnant mice were administered an intraperitoneal injection of 12.5 mg/kg retinoic acid (RA) suspended in corn oil on day 7 of pregnancy (RA group). Control mice received an equal volume of corn oil

To clarify the relationship between neural crest cells and ocular anomalies, pregnant mice were treated intraperitoneally with 12.5 mg/kg retinoic acid suspended in corn oil on day 7 of pregnancy (RA group). Control mice were given an equal volume of corn oil (control group). Each group consisted of

Exogenous retinoic acid has been found to be teratogenic in animals and man. Craniofacial defects induced by retinoic acid have stimulated considerable research interest. The present report deals with scanning electron microscopical observations of the craniofacial region concurrent with
