Results and discussion

Any other information on results incl. tables

After a single i.p. administration of 0.01 - 1.0 ml chloro-
benzene/kg bw (11 - 1106 mg/kg bw) to male B6C3F1 mice the
hepatic glutathione concentration was significantly
decreased at doses >= 0.1 ml/kg at 3 h post-treatment and the
serum alanine aminotransferase activity was significantly
increased at doses >= 0.5 ml/kg at 48 h posttreatment. A
dose of 1.0 ml/kg was lethal.
