Data were from Tyl et al. (1992).<br />

Values are expressed as the mean % of control values. The values for female and males are<br />

presented as M or F, respectively. Statistical significance (*, p @ 0.05) was determined by the<br />

analysis of variance by ANOVA or Dunnett's test as reported.<br />

The dosages were based on the highest value of the range during premating for males, and<br />

during lactation for females.<br />
