 | | Aluminium nitrate was administered by gavage to groups of pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats on day 14 of gestation through day 21 of lactation at doses of 0, 13, 26, or 52 mg of aluminium per kg of body weight per day. |
 | | Aluminium nitrate was administered by intubation to male Sprague-Dawley rats at 0, 13, 26, or 52 mg of aluminium per kg of body weight per day for 60 days prior to mating and to virgin females for 14 days prior to mating, with treatment continuing throughout mating, gestation, parturition, and weaning of the litters. |
 | | Aluminium hydroxide (57 mg of aluminium per kg of body weight) given with lactic acid (570 mg/kg of body weight) to mice by gavage was not toxic, but aluminium lactate (57 mg of aluminium per kg of body weight) produced developmental toxicity, including poor ossification, skeletal variations, and cleft palate (Colomina et al., 1992). |
