Retinoids, LRAT and REH activities in eggs of Japanese quail following maternal and in ovo exposures to 3,3',4,4'-tetrachlorobiphenyl

Retinoids, LRAT and REH activities in eggs of Japanese quail following maternal and in ovo exposures to 3,3',4,4'-tetrachlorobiphenyl

Environmental monitoring for the effects of organochlorine contaminants has identified changes in egg yolk retinoid concentrations, however underlying mechanisms are unknown. Breeding female Japanese quail, Coturnix coturnix japonica, received 3 bimonthly injections of a low dose (5 microg/g) of the...
