Executive summary -- Report of the Oversight Committee. I. Biologic markers in male reproductive and gametic genetic toxicology. Introduction -- Clinical evaluation of male infertility -- Biologic



markers of testicular function -- Biologic markers of epididymal structure and function -- Biologic markers of accessory sex organ structure and function -- Biologic markers of human male reproductive health and physiologic damage -- Assessing transmitted mutations in mice -- Markers for measuring germinal genetic toxicity and heritable mutations in people -- Conclusions and recommendations.

Introduction -- Biologic markers of genetic damage in females -- Biologic markers of reproductive development and aging -- Biologic markers of nonconceptive menstrual cycles -- Developing assays of biologic markers for epidemiologic studies: experience with a marker of pregnancy and early loss -- Conclusions and recommendations. III. Biologic markers of toxicity during pregnancy. Introduction -- Molecular biology: developing DNA markers of genotoxic effects -- Reproductive immunology: biologic markers of compromised pregnancies -- Cell biology: identifying biologic markers expressed during early pregnancy -- Physiologic assessment of fetal compromise -- Conclusions and Recommendations.
