Examinations
- Maternal examinations:
- Day 8 or 9 of gestation were described termination of pregnancy, removal of fetuses, gross inspection, and preparation of the excised fetuses for both skeletal and soft tissue examination.
A second aspect of this study involved the actions upon the placental vasculature as determined by transport of a 22Na. .
Five minutes after the subcutaneous administration of the respective the isotope, 0.1 ml delivering 3 µc., was injected intravenously into a tail vein of the mouse. By reporting the activity of the samples as a percentage of the concentration of isotope in maternal blood, each animal served as its own control. - Fetal examinations:
- Day 8 or 9 of gestation were prepared the excised fetuses for both skeletal and soft tissue examination.
