Abstract:
We demonstrate the construction of alcohol vapor chambers using readily available materials that simultaneously house 6 mouse cages. We further describe their use in a mouse model of fetal alcohol exposure equivalent to all 3 trimesters of human pregnancy. This paradigm exposes animals during gestation and postnatal days 1-12.
