Low (2.28 mg/kg) or high (4.56 mg/kg) doses of cadmium chloride were administered, either intraperitoneally or subcutaneously, to adult male potoroos (P. tridactylus). After 7 days, the testes, caput epididymis and spermatic cords of the high-dose groups all displayed a degree of cellular damage; however, the damage was not as extensive as that which occurs in some eutherian species after only 24 h. This time differential might be attributed to structural differences between the testicular blood supply in eutherians and marsupials.
将低剂量（2.28毫克/千克）或高剂量（4.56毫克/千克）的氯化镉通过腹腔注射或皮下注射给予成年雄性长鼻袋狸（长鼻袋狸属三趾袋狸）。7天后，高剂量组的睾丸、附睾头部和精索均表现出一定程度的细胞损伤；然而，这种损伤并不像某些真兽类物种在仅24小时后所出现的损伤那样广泛。这种时间差异可能归因于真兽类和有袋类动物睾丸血液供应的结构差异。
