Reproduction, Growth, and Development of Rats during Chronic Exposure to Multiple Field Strengths of 60-Hz Electric Fields 1990-04-17 .txt text/plain 6167 325 56 journal: Fundam Appl Toxicol Female rats were mated, and sperm-positive animals randomly distributed among four groups: sham-exposed or exposed to 10, 65, or 130 kV/m, 60-Hz vertical electric fields. Female rats were mated, and sperm-positive animals randomly distributed among four groups: sham-exposed or exposed to 10, 65, or 130 kV/m, 60-Hz vertical electric fields. Accordingly, in the study reported here we tested for a treatment-related response, utilizing multiple exposure groups, including 65 -cV/m (effective field strength) as used in our arevious experiments; 130 kV/m which was :wice as strong as that used in the previous ,vork and had been shown to be tolerated by •ats (Rommereim et al, 1989) ; the lowest evel of exposure (10 kV/m) was chosen to deineate the response curve at lower field strengths or possibly to determine a no-obierved-effect level; and the fourth group was sham-exposed as a control. Mean number of live fetuses per litter was less in rats exposed to the 130 kV/m field, but it was not statistically different from the control group {p = 0.33). ./cache/cord-032979-jle66lmn.txt ./txt/cord-032979-jle66lmn.txt
