Abstract
Little information is available in the literature on the susceptibility of the hamster embryo to teratogens. Desoxycorticosterone acetate apparently has some teratogenic activity (Tedford & Risely, 1950), but the degree and type of abnormality produced by this agent in the hamster have not been recorded. Orsini (1952) has described naturally-occurring urogenital anomalies which appear in females of a piebald strain of the golden hamster.Keywords
