Abstract :
The effect of chronic exposure of Sodium Fluoride (NaF), (5,20,50 mg/kg b.w.) for 60days , on reproductive tissue damage in young male albino rat was evaluated histopathologicaly alongwith certain genital tissue wet weight . Damaging effect on testicular histoarchitecture alongwith disfigured tubular structure was recorded alongwith histological change in other organs viz.- Epididymis , vasdeference seminal vesicle , and prostate gland . Even the epermatogenesis seemed to be arrested and clumping of spermatozoa was also obsorbed. The said effect were not observed in the control group.
