RESULTSTable i shows the significant reductions (p< 0.05) in body and uterine wet weights of decidualized pseudopregnant (DCR) rats fed i0 to i000 ppm of rotenone. Visible signs of toxicity exhibited by these animals, especially those exposed to 750 and I000 ppm, were lethargy and ataxia (. loss of muscular coordination), and a rough, unkempt fur. Significant decreases in dietary consumption accompanied these weight changes. Biochemical parameters like uterine protein and glycogen concentrations (Fig. i, 2) were dimini~ ed in dosage-dependent manners. Post-mortem examination of these DCR animals revealed that the fatty tissues adjacent to uteri were greatly reduced in rats exposed to 750 and I000 ppm of rotenone.In pregnant studies, losses in body weight from Days 6 to 15 of gestation, were demonstrated by maternal organisms treated with up to 800 ppm rotenone (Table 2). At doses of 600 and 800 ppm, dams displayed the external toxic signs of lethargy and ataxia. Biochemically, there were significant decreases (p< 0.05) in ovarian protein, and in placental protein and glycogen contents at doses up to 600 ppm (Table 3). The reductions in these biochemical profiles were unaffected by dosages.
