The environmental and biological risks of extreme low doses of chlorobenzenes
Several environmental chemicals and pesticides have been found to alter neuroendocrine communication and behaviour in exposed biological systems.

| Tartalmi kivonat: | Several environmental chemicals and pesticides have been found to alter neuroendocrine communication and behaviour in exposed biological systems. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the effects of theubiquitous chlorobenzenes on the behaviour elements of Wistar rats. For this reason rats (n=50 in each groups) were treated with a mixture of 0.1 and 1.0 µg/kg each of hexachlorobenzene and 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene via a gastric tube for 30, 60 and 90 days. At the endpoints of the experiment the behavioural elements of rats were detected and tissue samples were taken for chlorobenzene analysis in gas-chromatography. It was found that the anxiety-related behavioural elements were altered and chlorobenzenes were present in different tissues. |
