1. Srobic Acid 투여군은 무처치대조군에 비하여 embryo의 체장과 체중이 용량의존적으로 증가를 나타내었는데 체장에 있어서는 1.0ml/egg 및 5.0ml/egg 투여군이, 체중에 있어서는 0.5ml/egg 투여군에서 유의성이 있었다. 2. 2.5ml/egg 수준으로 BHT를 투여한 실험군은 무처치대조군 및 용매대조군에 비하여 체중, 체장, 전지 및 후지에 있어서 유의성 있는 감소를 나타내었다. 3. Sorbic acid 투여군의 기형발생은 뚜렷한 것은 나타나지 않았으나 1.0ml/egg 투여군에서는 hydrocephalus를 가지고 있는 embryo를 볼수 있었다. 4.BHT 투여군의 기형발생률은 무처치 대조군에 비하여 유의성은 없었으나 전지이상 , 혈종 및 hyrocephalus 가 나타났다.

The background control data were compiled from rat developmental toxicity studies con-ducted at Toxicology Research Center, KRICT during the 1993-1999 period. These data were assembled in order to provide background in formation for the maternal and fetal data collected in 13 developmental toxicity studies using Sprague-Dawley rats. A total of 325 mated females were used in these studies during the seven-year period and overall pregnancy rate of these females was 93.8%. The present background control data included body weights, food consumption, hematological values, and organ weights of pregnant females, caesarean section data, and fetal examination data. These data can be used not only as a historical database for the meaningful interpretation of data from reproductive and developmental toxicity studies, but also as a contribution to biological characterization oj Sprague-Dawley rats.

This study was performed to examine the availability of using medaka (Oryzias latipes) in teratological test. Medaka embryos were collected within 2 hours post-fertilization and cultured in petri dishes containing buffered saline until hatching. The embryos were treated with 0.56 mg/l chlorpyrifos-methyl and 10 mM methyl methanesulfonate at 20 stages (about 35 hours post-fertilization). Eleven developmental features were selected and observed from 33 stages (about 9 days post-fertilization). Scoring system was developed and applicated for the measurement of potential teratological effects by the test compound. Chlorpyrifos-methyl did not induce teratological effect in medaka embryos. However, we found teratological test using medaka embryo reduced the cost, labors, period and space of experiment significantly compared with teratological study using rodents. Above findings strongly suggest that medaka embryo can be used as a lab animal model for teratogenicity test instead of rodents.

The purpose of reproductive toxicity studies is to evaluate all effects resulting from paternal or maternal exposure that interfere with conception, development, birth, and maturation of offspring. In 1966, the US Food and Drug Administration (US FDA) published guidelines for a three-segment study for drug testing to examine adverse effects on fertility and pregnancy. Three segments were proposed: Segment I, Study of Fertility and General Reproductive Performance, to provide information on breeding, fertility, nidation, parturition, neonatal effects and lactation: Segment II, Teratological study, to provide information on embryo toxicity and teratogenicity: and Segment III. perinatal and Postnatal Study, to provide information on late fetal development, labour and delivery, neonatal viability, and growth and lactation. The classic guideline is still used to this day with only monor modification throughout the world. In the present review, the principles and methods of reproductive toxicity studies are discussed with special attention given to scientific issues.

The objective of this study was to assess the teratogenic and embryotoxic effects of clomiphene citrate in mice. The pregnant mice were administered a single dose of clomiphene citrate at different concentrations i.e 1.0, 2.0, 4.0 and 6.0 ${\mu}g/g$ BW on day 8 of gestation. Fetuses recovered on day 18 of gestation were analyzed on morphological, morphometric and histological basis. Morphological observations showed defects like open eyelids, anophthalmia, fore and hindlimb micromelia, meromelia, amelia, sacral hygroma, hydrocephaly, hemorrhagic spots, kyphosis and clubbed feet. Morphometric analysis indicated a significant (p<0.001) reduction in fetal body weight, crown rump length, head circumference, eye circumference, forelimb and hindlimb lengths and tail size against controls. The histological observations showed brain defects like hydrocephaly, enlarged ventricles and undifferentiated neuroglial cells in cerebellum. Cleft palate, underdeveloped pharynx and atrophy of jaw muscles were the common anatomical defects of pharyngeal region. It is concluded that the concentrations of clomiphene citrate used during the present study proved teratogenic in mice fetuses.

The mother was 24 years old, primipara, and had been taking carbamazepine 400mg(serum concentration $5.0-8.5{\mu}g/ml$) during pregnancy without any clinical seizures. A male baby with physical malformation was delivered on week 39. The malformation is extradigit(polydactily) on X-ray of right foot and left mild hydronephrosis on ultrasonography and renal scan with radioactive material. We reported this rare case and reviewed related articles about teratogenic effect of carbamazepine, mechanism of action and prevention of teratogenesis.

PCDDS and PCDFs are very stable chcmicals and have very long residence times in the environment and in organisms, including humans. Their hydrophobicity promotes accumulation in sediments and organisms, resulting in high concentrations in both sediments and organisms. Among toxicological effects reports arc teratogenicity, reduce reproduction, liver toxicity, decreased growth rate and behavioral changes (Zeise et al., 1990; Huff, 1992). PCDDs/DFs are inadvertently produced from various combustion sources and manufacturing processes, such as municipal solid waste incineration (Olie et at., 1977), motor vehicles (Marklund et al., 1987), steel mills (Tysklind et al., 1989), and chemical production processes (Hutzinger et al., 1985).

지난 몇해 유럽과 미국의 일부 학자들은 인삼이 장기에 어떤 영향을 미칠 수 있다고 발표하여 저자는 인삼추출물에 대한 안전성을 규명하고자 급, 만성 독성과 심맥계 및 호르몬계에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 5년간에 걸쳐 얻어진 이와같은 임상연구 결과는 인삼이 절대적으로 안전하며, 아무런 독성작용과 부작용도 일으키지 않는 것으로 관찰되었다.

국내에 서식하는 개구리의 배아를 이용하여 화학물질의 독성평가에 대한 가능성을 파악하기 위해 FETAX(Frog Embryo Teratogenesis Assay-Xenopus) 기법에 따라 청개구리(Hyla japonica)의 배아를 배양하면서 $Cu^{2+}$과 Tebuconazole의 효과를 probit 분석법으로 조사하였다. 그 결과, $Cu^{2+}$과 Tebuconazole의 농도에 의존하여 유생의 체장 길이는 감소하고 치사율과 기형율은 증가하였으며 $Cu^{2+}$과 Tebuconazole의 teratogenic concentration($EC_{50}$)은 각각 0.05, 5.0mg/L을 나타내었고 embryo lethal concentrations($LC_{50}$)은 0.16, 39.1mg/L을 나타내었다. Teratogenic index($TI=LC_{50}/EC_{50}$)는 $Cu^{2+}$의 경우 3.0, Tebuconazole의 경우 7.7을 나타내어 청개구리 배아 발달에 최기형성 물질로 작용함을 알 수 있었다. 이상의 결과들로 보아 $Cu^{2+}$과 Tebuconazole 모두 낮은 농도에서 청개구리 배아의 발달에 민감하게 반응하였으며 다량의 배아 확보가 가능하였고 배양이 용이하였으며 치사율, 기형율, 성장률, 기형양상 등이 기존의 연구들과 비교하였을 때 유사한 결과를 나타내어 청개구리 배아를 활용한 시험기법은 화학물질 및 환경오염물질의 독성검정에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
