Comparative toxicity of microcystin congeners in mice exposed by the oral route

Description

Physical and serum chemistry effects in mice due to a single oral dose of ten microcystin congeners at a variety of dose levels to determine health effects and a no observable effect level. This dataset is associated with the following publications: Chernoff, N. Comparative toxicology of microcystin congeners. U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Washington, DC, USA. Chernoff, N., D. Hill, J. Schmid, J. Lang, T. Le, A. Farthing, and H. Huang. The comparative toxicity of ten microcystin congeners administered orally to mice: Clinical effects and organ toxicity.. Toxins. MDPI AG, Basel, SWITZERLAND, 12(6): 403, (2020). Chernoff, N., D. Hill, J. Schmid, J. Lang, A. Farthing, and H. Huang.
