PERSISTENCE OF STORED Cd²⁺ IN THE LIVERS AND KIDNEYS OF FEMALE RATS DURING PREGNANCY

Summary.: In virgin female rats, subcutaneously injected Cd²⁺ accumulates to high levels and is retained in the livers and kidneys. When such animals become pregnant, this stored Cd²⁺ is not mobilized and, thus, in contrast to `free' Cd²⁺, does not induce toxaemia or excessive fetal malformations.
