Abstract
Summary
Serum esterase, xanthine oxidase, and glutamic-oxaloacetic-transaminase (GOT) activities were followed for 9 days after a single 4 hr exposure of male rats to carbon tetrachloride vapors. 1500 ppm of carbon tetrachloride in air produced marked changes in all 3 enzyme systems. 1000 ppm affected only serum GOT and xanthine oxidase activities. At 250 ppm, only serum GOT activity was significantly affected.
