Abstract

Three cases of poisoning by carbon tetrachloride in the one industry are reported. Liver damage as evidenced by altered liver function tests was a feature of other workmen of this plant also exposed to carbon tetrachloride. Kidney damage, which is a feature of other reported cases of carbon tetrachloride poisoning, was only shown by one of the cases reported here. The dangers of carbon tetrachloride are noted, and care in its industrial and household use emphasized.
