Abstract
Chloroform (CHCl3) and bromodichloromethane (CHBrCl2) are the two most common haloorganic contaminants of chlorinated drinking water. A significantly increased incidence of hepatic neoplastic nodules was found in female rats when either of these compounds was administered in drinking water to Wistar rats throughout their life-span. Hepatic adenofibrosis was also produced by chronic ingestion of these two halomethanes.Entities:
