Abstract |
Rats fed an atherogenic diet were exposed to 1mg/l CS2 for 6-10 months. Findings in exposed animals were: slower gain in body weight; greater increase in serum cholesterol levels; moderate increase in total cholesterol content of aorta wall, with significantly increased esterified cholesterol fraction; more advanced lipid infiltration of coronary arteries and endocardium. |
