Figure 2. Effects of glucose on developing chick embryos (HH 7-9).

Figure 2

A: Untreated control embryo. B: Embryo treated with 0.9% saline exhibiting normal development. C: Embryo treated with 50 mM glucose. Abnormal development of neural tube and somites are prominent. D: Embryo treated with 100 mM glucose exhibiting exencephaly i.e. inhibition of neural tube closure.
