Irreversible impairment of active avoidance behavior in rats prenatally exposed to mild concentrations of carbon monoxide
Wistar female rats were exposed to relatively mild concentrations of carbon monoxide (75 and 150 ppm) from day 0 to day 20 of pregnancy. The results show that prenatal exposure to CO (150 ppm) significantly im...
