Water samples from ground water and some rivers from Owerri Local Government Area of Imo state Nigeria, were investigated for contaminants and heavy metals. The results obtained showed that in the month of April 2009, the ground water had mean maximum concentration 1.303 mg/dm3 of Pb, 1.048mgldm3 of Pb,1.488mgldm3 of Pb,for Otamiri and Oramiriukwa rivers respectively.For the month of […]

The potential of cholecalciferol overdosage to induce toxicity and teratogenicity in white albino mice was evaluated in the present study. Cholecalciferol was given at dose levels of 600, 1200 and 1800i. units/kg at two phases. Thefirst phase lasted for 3 weeks of mice’s gestation period. Control animals received equivalent volume of normal saline. Animals were […]
