Graphical abstract
Micrograph of mouse cortical neurons and astrocytes
Cultured mouse cortical neurons (red) and astrocytes (green) at 10×magnification. Newly reported mouse experiments showed that azoxystrobin and its metabolite transferred from dams to offspring through the placenta and via lactation and that even relatively low exposures induced cortical cell death in embryos.
