Morphometric changes in the prepubertal rat thyroid gland following acute exposure to PCBs

Abstract

dc:description

Female rats subjected to a short-term immature rodent bioassay, developed to study the effects of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), were further used to examine the effects of PCBs on thyroid glands through examination of serum thyroxine (T$\sb4$) and morphometry.
