• Effects of Nitrofurantoin and Cadmium Chloride on Spermatogenetic Activity in an Avian Pest, the Yellow-throated Sparrow(Petronia xanthocollis Burton).

抄録

Oral administration of nitrofurantoin (200mg/kg body weight daily for 5 days) caused reduction in testis weight, seminiferous tubular diameter, and secondary spermatocyte and spermatid populations in the yellow-throated sparrow (Petronia xanthocollis, Burton). Spermatozoa bacame less abundant, but Leydig cell nuclear area, 3β-HSDH activity and sialic acid content of the testis remained unaltered after treatment. Single intraperitoneal injection of cadmium chloride (0.05mg/kg body weight) failed to produce any perceptible effect on the testis of the yellow-throated sparrow.<br>It is suggested that nitrofurantoin has an antispermatogenetic effect in the yellowthroated sparrow. But cadmium chloride, at least with the dose administered, has no effect on the testis of this avian species. Moreover, both the chemosterilants have no effect on gonadotrophic activity or testicular steroidogenic activity in the yellow-throated sparrow.
