Popis: | 1. Biotransformations of benzene to phenol, and styrene to phenylglyoxylic acid, mandelic acid and hippuric acid were suppressed by co-administration of toluene.2. This is due to competitive inhibition of the oxidation mechanisms involved in the metabolism of these compounds; the induction of oxidative activities in the liver, with phenobarbital, alleviated the suppression.3. Possible potentiation of toxicity of benzene and styrene by co-exposure to toluene is discussed herein. |
