Abstract
dc:descriptionThe present study was undertaken to determine the influence of chronic alcohol ingestion on the maternal organism and the fetus under conditions of nutritional adequacy and the effects of chronic ethanol ingestion and/or iron deficiency on reproductive performance as well as iron and folate metabolism. A mouse model, CBA/J strain, was employed, and morphological and biochemical assessments were performed.
