Histological changes in developing Testis in normal and in those embryos exposed to Lead Acetate, by a single intraperitoneal injection at 10 day of pregnancy, were compared. Seminiferous tubules during prenatal life appear solid only acquire lumen after birth. The toxic effect of Lead Acetate caused reduction in number of Germ cells (Gonocytes) and disorganization of tubular structure with degenerative changes occasionally. The differences were minimized by time as seen in postnatal ages.
