Drawing from a large number of disciplines, Reproductive Toxicology publishes timely, original research
on the influence of chemical and physical agents on reproduction. Written by and for obstetricians, pediatricians, embryologists, teratologists,
geneticists, toxicologists, andrologists, and others interested in detecting potential reproductive hazards, the journal is a forum for
communication among researchers and practitioners. Articles focus on the application of in vitro, animal and clinical research
to the practice of clinical medicine.
All aspects of reproduction are within the scope of Reproductive Toxicology, including
the formation and maturation of male and female gametes, sexual function, the events surrounding the fusion of gametes and the development
of the fertilized ovum, nourishment and transport of the conceptus within the genital tract, implantation, embryogenesis, intrauterine
growth, placentation and placental function, parturition, lactation and neonatal survival. Adverse reproductive effects in males will
be considered as significant as adverse effects occurring in females. To provide a balanced presentation of approaches, equal emphasis
will be given to clinical and animal or in vitro work. Typical end points that will be studied by contributors include infertility,
sexual dysfunction, spontaneous abortion, malformations, abnormal histogenesis, stillbirth, intrauterine growth retardation, prematurity,
behavioral abnormalities, and perinatal mortality.
In addition to original research articles, Reproductive Toxicology also
publishes interpretative review articles, editorials, letters, book reviews, and conference announcements. The first section of each
issue of the journal is devoted to an in-depth, timely review of research on the effect of particular chemical or physical agents on
reproduction. Potential authors are encouraged to contact the Editor-in-Chief before submitting such a review.
