Abstract:
The BB 1O1's effects on the reproductive progress of parents (P), the first (Fl) and the second (F2) generations of mice were investigated at the National Institute of Malariology, Parasitology & Entomology (NIMPE) between February and October 2004. The mice were dosed with BB 101 50mg/kg/day for 5 consecutive days. BB 101 was found to cause no effects on birth progress, mating rate, fertilization. Early died fetuses and late died fetuses were similar among P, F1 and F2. The new born mice were found to have no innate defects. Their size and weight were normal.
