Summary.Mature female rats treated with Citral (3,7-dimethyl-2,6–octadienal) either topically for 60 or 100 days or by 6 i.p. injections (at 4–5 day intervals) showed a marked decrease in the number of normal follicles per section, because oocytes tended to degenerate although the follicular cells remained normal.The reproductive performance after Citral treatment was impaired: there was a reduction in implantation number and litter size and an increased post-implantation fetal wastage. None of the young survived after 100 days of topical Citral treatment. It is suggested that Citral directly affects the oocytes. |
