title: Orciprenaline and fetal lung maturation in rabbits.
abstract: The palmitic and stearic acids and the palmitic/stearic ratio in fetal rabbit lungs were studied after orciprenaline administration to the mother from the 26th to the 31st day of gestation. The results were significantly higher in the treated groups than in the control group for the palmitic acid and palmitic/stearic ratio.
