Abstract

Rats were exposed to atmospheres of 2000, 1000, 250, 150, 50 and 10 ppm vinyl chloride (VC) for 1–7 h to determine the effect of VC on the hepatic non-protein sulfhydryl content. Exposure to 2000, 1000, 250 and 150 ppm VC caused a progressive depression of the hepatic non-protein sulfhydryl content. Following exposure to 50 ppm VC for 7 h to depression was inconsistent, and no depression was observed after 10 ppm VC for 7 h. Also, exposure to 1000 ppm VC did not alter the serum clearance of bromosulphalein (BSP).
