title: Salbupart effect on rabbit heart and brain.
abstract: In connection with the widespread use of the product Salbupart POLFA in the treatment of imminent premature labour the effect of this medicament on rabbit fetuses was studied. In all, 29 fetuses were examined, particularly with histological examination of the heart and the central nervous system. No harmful effects of the medicament on these organs was found. In the fetal central nervous system Salbupart produced more intense staining of myelin sheaths by Heidenhain's method which may suggest earlier maturation of the brain.
