| Abstract | ||
| Technical (T) and formulated (F) maneb as well as two of its mixtures namely brestan-60: mancozeb: fentin and zinc acetates were tested on pregnant mice from day of the 9th 15th fentin acetate Technical maneb and gestation. of maternal in reduction were more effective brestan-60. weight gain (MWG) than F.maneb However fentin acetate was more effective than F. maneb in this respect. Also, mancozeb and zinc were effective and acetate significantly increased maternal body weight gain at all the tested However the of effect these compounds was the following order: fentin F. maneb. On T. maneb acetate brestan 60 hand the other the tested compounds were also effective on the general maternal parameters (GMP) and the effects were in the following order: brestan 60> fentin acetate> F. maneb > T. maneb. It Was obvious that brestan 60 and fentin acetate were more effective on MWG and showed GMP than maneb. The tested compounds on effects liver tested appreciable alkaline phosphatase activity (LAP) and their effects were in the following order: mancozeb -zinc acetate brestan 60 F. maneb> fentin and > T. maneb. zinc Thus mancozeb acetate acetate were more effective on LAP than maneb and brestan-6. | ||
