Abstract
Both Cd and furylfuramide are highly toxic at every developmental stage of D. melanogaster, resulting in prolongation of the developmental time, lowering of the viability and decreasing of the egg production. These chemicals give no mutagenic effects either in the sex-linked or in the 2nd chromosome lethal test.
