Results for Bisphenol A

Decreased body weight in both males and females on post-natal day 21-22

Subjects: ICR/Jcl mice

Chemical: Bisphenol A

Low doses tested: 20.0 μg/kg bw/d

Route of administration: dissolved in sesame oil and delivered subcutaneously

Exposure duration: embryronic day 0 – post-natal day 21 (comparable to human prenatal development from approximately day 1 of week 1 to beyond birth)

Age of measurement: post-natal day 21-22 and post-natal week 10
