As a toxicologist, I have published 54 studies. There are three parts to my studies : in vitro toxicological effects and acute oral toxicity, biological activity. We realized the first two parts in reproducing animal and the biochemistry section of Veterinary department in Cairo NRC. I achieved the third one, sample preparation and essays in vivo. You are studying lactating females rat that have been exposed to pesticides. Are there side effects? Worldwide, women working […]
