Figure 1

Serum concentrations of testosterone (ng/dL) (a), estradiol (pg/mL) (b), and dihydrotestosterone (pg/mL) (c) at 53 days old in male rats treated with the herbicide metolachlor during the prepubertal period. Doses: control = 0 mg/kg, MT5 = 5 mg/kg and MT50 = 50 mg/kg. Results are expressed as mean ± SEM, ANOVA, 𝑛 = 1 0 animals/group, * 𝑃 < 0 . 0 5 , ** 𝑃 < 0 . 0 1 .
