Effect of DDT or Parathion on Open-Field Behavior of Offspring from DDT- or Parathion-Treated Mothers

Abstract
Mice offspring were prepared and raised from DDT-, Parathion-, or corn oil-treated mothers during the first, second, and third trimesters of pregnancy. All Ss were subjected to the open-field test when 60 to 66 days old. The offspring of DDT- and Parathion-treated mothers did not behave differently from the offspring of corn oil-treated mothers (control).
