Abstract
Prenatal lead exposure had a damaging effect on Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase activity in the brain and liver of rat fetuses (20 days of gestation). The decrease in Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase activity in the brain and liver of treated fetuses reflects activation of free radical processes and impairment of the antioxidant defense system during prenatal lead exposure.Entities:
