Popis: Mancozeb is classified as an endocrine disruptor; thus the present study was carried out to investigate the impact of mancozeb on mammalian ovarian functions using in vitro caprine oocyte maturation and granulosa cell culture models. Caprine cumulus oocyte complexes (COCs) and granulosa cells were cultured under standard culture conditions and treated with mancozeb concentrations of 0.3, 3, and 30 μg/ml along with a control for 24 h and assessed. Granulosa cell viability and progesterone concentration in spent culture media after treatments were also assessed. Mancozeb significantly decreased (P
