Short and long term effects of different doses of paracetamol on sperm parameters and DNA integrity in mice
The aim was to survey the impact of normal and high doses of paracetamol consumption on sperm parameters and DNA integrity in mice. A total of 36 adult male mice were divided into three groups: mice of group A served as control fed on basal diet, group B received normal dosage of Paracetamol (66 mg ...

A total of 36 adult male mice were divided into three groups: mice of group A served as control fed on basal diet, group B received normal dosage of Paracetamol (66 mg kg/day) and basal diet, group C received high dosage of Paracetamol (100 mg kg/day) and basal diet for 35, 70 and 105 days.
