Histological changes in male reproductive system of dose response bisphenol A (BPA) treated sprague-dawley (SD) rats / Muhammad Faiz Abdul Hadi

Bisphenol A (BPA) is a chemical produced in large quantities for use primarily in the production of polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins. BPA is also act as potential endocrine disruptor which it mimics the action of estrogen and lead to disorder of reproductive system. In this study, four groups...

In this study, four groups of SD rats were administered orally at different dose (50µg/kg/day, 500µg/kg/day, 1000µg/kg/day and 5000µg/kg/day) treatments for 2 weeks.
