Table 2.
Negative correlation between prenatal EtOH intake by rat dams (6.7% liquid diet) and the development of rat pups.
| Body length, cm (tail not included) | Eye diameter, mm | |
|---|---|---|
| Control P2, n = 4 (±SD) | 3.5 ± 0.2 | 3.5 ± 0.1 |
| FAS P2, n = 4 (±SD) | 3.0 ± 0.1 | 3.1 ± 0.2 |
| Control P15, n = 4 (±SD) | 5.5 ± 0.2 | 4.0 ± 0.3 |
| FAS P15, n = 4 (±SD) | 5.0 ± 0.3 | 3.8 ± 0.2 |
| Male Fetal Sex (%) | 50 | 50 |
Comparative measurements of the body length and eye size of the FAS (EtOH diet) and Control (control diet) rat pups. The n for each group represents the number of rat pups. For each pup, both eyes were measured, and the mean diameter was used for the calculations in the table.
