Abstract | These preliminary findings indicate that the primary organs affected in the rat by HCB are the adrenals, liver, heart, and lungs. Information on the chronic toxicity of HCH, particularly when the material is ingested over an extended period of time, is presently not available in the literature. It is the purpose of this paper to report preliminary findings in rats when technical HCB was fed in the diet for four months. |
