FIGURE 1.

Behavior assessment for adult rats following neonatal exposure to DMSO (n = 30). Experimental groups were prepared and submitted to behavioral assessments as described in the methods. Depicted are behavioral patterns for sociability and social novelty assessed at P32. Significant decreases in interaction time were observed following DMSO exposure in both the sociability and social novelty test. Values are represented as means ± SEM.; sociability tests for both the 2.0 and 4.0 ml DMSO/kg groups, p < .0001. Social novelty tests for the 2.0 ml DMSO/kg group, p = .0041, and the 4.0 ml DMSO/kg group, p = .0085. **p < .01 versus sham‐treated control (PBS); ****p < .0001 versus sham‐treated control (PBS)
