Mouse model of gestational exposure to Mixture S. Pregnant mice were exposed throughout pregnancy to vehicle or to 10x, 100x and 500x the geometric mean of SELMA study mothers’ urine/serum levels for the phthalate monoesters in Mixture S. Offspring’s anogenital index and sex ratio was monitored on postnatal day (PND) 1. A split- sex and litter design was used to study the effects of Mixture S on the reproductive system of the offspring at pre-puberty (PND21) and adulthood (PND90). Outcomes analyzed include AGD index, gonadal histology, expression of key gametogenesis and steroidogenesis regulators and circulating hormone levels.
