Abstract excerpt
Dose responses of the characteristic short-term effects of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD), 1,2,3,7,8-pentachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (PeCDD), 1,2,3,4,7,8-hexachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (HxCDD), and 1,2,3,4,6,7,8-heptachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (HpCDD) were compared in the resistant Han/Wistar (Kuopio) (H/W) rats and the sensitive Long-Evans (Turku/AB) (L-E) rats. The resistance of H/W rats is linked to the...
