  • In order to evaluate Phaleria macrocarpa (Scheff.) Boerl. (Mahkota Dewa) seed extract for possible embryo-fetotoxicity effects and disturbance of postnatal development of pups, female mice were treated on days 6-14 of pregnancy with either the extract (50, 100 and 200 mg/BW) or distilled water (1 ml/mouse), by gastric intubation. Half of the fetus was fixated in red alizarin for skeletal observation and the other half was soaked in Bouin solution. Fetals study suggest of embryo-fetotoxicity on the pups indicating that the seed may be not safe for mice on two higher doses 100 and 200 mg/kg BW. Keywords : fetotoxicity, Phaleria macrocarpa, mice
