title: [Ovarian calcium and fertilization in female rats receiving a subchronic overdose of vitamin D3].
abstract: Calcium is increasing in ovaries of adult female rats when D3 vitamin is given by stomach intubation for 7 and 15 days. Histochemical studies show the presence of spherular chalky deposits specially in granulosa of some follicles. In the same times atresia becomes evident and fecondation is reduced. Chemical determination of calcium content of ovary show calcium accumulation in this organ.
