( Aida, N; Arai, H; Hara, M; Iwamoto, H; Miyake, S; Yamada, M; Yamashita, S, 1997)
"To determine if maternal toluene abuse produces any structural or developmental disabilities in the developing fetus, a cohort of toluene-exposed infants was ascertained and examined."4.79Toluene embryopathy: delineation of the phenotype and comparison with fetal alcohol syndrome. ( Hoyme, HE; Pearson, MA; Rimsza, ME; Seaver, LH, 1994)
"Volatile organic solvent abuse continues to be a worldwide health problem, including the neurobehavioral teratogenic sequelae of toluene abuse during pregnancy."3.85Prenatal toluene exposure impairs performance in the Morris Water Maze in adolescent rats. ( Bowen, SE; Callan, SP; Hannigan, JH, 2017)
" These studies explored the effects of brief, repeated, prenatal toluene exposures in pregnant female rats on body weight, metabolic rate, body composition, and food intake in their offspring."3.74Effects of abuse pattern of gestational toluene exposure on metabolism, feeding and body composition. ( Bowen, SE; Coscina, DV; Fata, E; Jarosz, PA; Jen, KL, 2008)
"Little is known about the effect of inhalation of methanol and other solvents on the pregnancy and the growth of the fetus."3.72Intrauterine cerebral infarcts and bilateral frontal cortical leukomalacia following chronic maternal inhalation of carburetor cleaning fluid during pregnancy. ( Bharti, D, 2003)
"The present study was undertaken in order to investigate if toluene induced oxidative stress in brains from rats exposed prenatally to 1800 ppm toluene 6 hr/day at days 7-20 during the pregnancy."3.71Changes in markers of oxidative stress and membrane properties in synaptosomes from rats exposed prenatally to toluene. ( Edelfors, S; Hass, U; Hougaard, KS, 2002)
"Pregnant Wistar rats were treated with different concentrations of toluene by inhalation (300, 600, 1000 and 1200 ppm) from day 9 to day 21 of pregnancy for 6 h a day in a whole-body inhalation chamber (controls inhaled fresh air only)."3.69Postnatal development and behaviour of Wistar rats after prenatal toluene exposure. ( Chahoud, I; Thiel, R, 1997)
"Toluene embryopathy is characterised by microcephaly, central nervous system dysfunction, attentional deficits and hyperactivity, developmental delay with greater language deficits, minor craniofacial and limb anomalies, and variable growth deficiency."3.67Toluene embryopathy: two new cases. ( Hersh, JH, 1989)
"Toluene is an organic solvent that is widely used by industry and is ubiquitous in our environment."2.46Reproductive toxicology and teratology of abused toluene. ( Bowen, SE; Hannigan, JH, 2010)
" Thus, the possibility that 4-NT exerted endocrine disrupting effects seems to be very low under the conditions of this study, and when the substance was administered to rats over two generations, doses less than 160 mg/kg/day did not induce any marked adverse effects on the reproductive capacity in the parental animals, with the no observed effect level (NOEL) and the no observed adverse effect (NOAEL) on growth and development in the offspring concluded to be 40 mg/kg/day."1.33A two-generation reproductive toxicity study of 4-nitrotoluene in rats. ( Aso, S; Ehara, H; Hosyuyama, S; Minobe, Y; Miyata, K; Shiraishi, K; Umano, T, 2005)

( Aida, N; Arai, H; Hara, M; Iwamoto, H; Miyake, S; Yamada, M; Yamashita, S, 1997)
" In conclusion, embryo-fetal toxic effects were apparent in female rats exposed to toluene before and during the early stage of pregnancy."1.29Reproductive and developmental toxicity studies of toluene. II. Effects of inhalation exposure on fertility in rats.
