“…In conclusion, Mn exposure affects sensory function in mice and rats with effects seen at doses as low as 3.0 mg/kg bw (Horvath et al, 2012;Ohgami et al, 2016); while at higher doses or longer exposures behavioural changes were observed (Dorman et al, 2000;Ohgami et al, 2016). This is supported by findings from single dose studies (Muthaiah et al, 2016;Takacs et al, 2012). Effects of Mn exposure on motor function in adult animals appear less pronounced, as only one multiple-dose study examined motor function and found no effects, while several single dose studies showed detrimental effects of Mn exposure on motor function at rather low doses (≤16.7 mg Mn/kg bw) using rotarod test (Avila et al, 2010;Freeman et al, 2020) or grip strength (Nkpaa, Awogbindin, et al, 2019).…”
