    Author: Tiwari RK, Bandyopadhyay SK, Chatterjee K, Mitra A, Banerjee A, Chatterjee GC.
    Journal: Int J Vitam Nutr Res; 1982; 52(4):448-55. PubMed ID: 6186625.
    Abstract:
    Oral application of lindane at a dose of 2 mg/100 g body weight of rat/day for 15 days produced alterations in the activities of several enzymes viz, glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase, alkaline phosphatase, acetylcholinesterase and inorganic pyrophosphatase in different organs and serum. Histological changes in liver and kidney tissues and changes in whole liver and liver plasma membrane lipids were also noted by chronic administration of lindane. Partial alleviation of the toxic symptoms with respect to some of these parameters were noted by high dose administration of L-ascorbic acid.
