| Research Abstract |
A sensitive method by using the gene expression related to avian yolk protein was established to detect the effect of endocrine disrupters. Especially focusing on oogenesis and embryonic growth, the most appropriate gene is suggested to be quail very-low-density-lipoprotein. The effect of heavy metals and antioxidants as well as diethylstilbestrol was examined with the causal relationship with dose-related manner at molecular level.
