FIG. 4.

Pretreatment with varying doses (μM) of NAC did not rescue pericardial effusion, and BSO did not worsen it. Pericardial effusion areas in BNF + ANF exposures are significantly higher than DMSO controls (*p ≤ 0.05). Single doses of 1 μg/l BNF and 100 μg/l ANF showed no significant differences from DMSO controls and were excluded from graphs for simplicity, but included in statistical analyses. Data are presented as mean + SEM; n = 3 pools of five embryos, and each data point is representative of at least 30 embryos.
