摘要

The second most used herbicide in the Vietnam war was Agent White, which contained the active components 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 4-amino-3,5,6-trichloropicolinic acid (picloram). The herbicide formulation Tordon 75D((R)) is similar in terms of its active components to Agent White and is currently used by the agricultural industry in Australia. As part of an investigation into the possible adverse effects of this herbicide on male reproductive performance, groups of five male rats were gavaged 5 days a week for 9 weeks with either 0.125ml/kg (low dose), 0.25ml/kg (middle dose), or 0.5ml/kg (high dose) Tordon 75D((R)) or water (controls). The high dose corresponded to 150mg/kg body weight 2,4-D and 37.5mg/kg picloram acid equivalents. At the end of the treatment period, the testes were collected, weighed, and examined histologically and blood samples were taken to determine serum testosterone. Groups of high dose animals were also examined after 1, 2, and 4 weeks treatment. The 9 weeks treatment with Tordon 75D((R)) caused severe reduction in testicular weight in some high dose animals. Histologically, the small testes showed shrunken tubules with germ cell depletion. This damage was still evident in some rats following a 21 weeks recovery period suggesting that the testicular damage was permanent. Testicular damage was not due to endocrine disruption as there were no significant differences in the serum concentration of testosterone in control animals compared to Tordon 75D((R))-treated animals. Blood levels associated with the high dose were determined in a separate study and were much higher than those likely to be obtained by occupational exposure to this herbicide.
