BPA effects on OVA induced airway inflammation. Eosinophil counts in BAL fluid 18 days after i.p. injection of OVA. Bars indicate the mean ± SE for groups. N = 4-9 litters. *p = 0.03 and **p < 0.01 compared with OVA-sensitized pups from non BPA exposed mothers. *** The eosinophil number in one BAL fluid was 5SE greater than the mean of the other samples. It was considered an outlier and not included in the statistics. There was no significant difference between any of the non OVA-sensitized groups
