Ozone, the predominant oxidant in photochemical smog, produces pulmonary and systemic toxicities. Long-Evans rats were exposed during early (Day 6-9), mid (Day 9-12) or late (Day 17-20) gestation or throughout the period of organogenesis (Day 6-15) to concentrations of ozone varying from 0-1.97 ppm. No terata were produced by any regimen, but the resorption rate was increased following exposure to concentrations of ozone above 1.26 ppm in midgestation. Exposure to ambient levels (0.44 ppm) for 8 h/day during the period of organogenesis produced no significant effects. Fetal heart rates, ECG, hematocrits and plasma electrolytes were unaltered by exposure to 1 ppm during mid- or late gestation when examined on Day 20. Sodium salicylate (150 mg/kg on Day 10) was synergistic with ozone (1 ppm in midgestation), in that the combined treatment decreased fetal wt and to a lesser extent increased the resorption rate. These effects were minimal from either treatment administered alone.
