Abstract
Male rats kept at a temperature of 4 degrees-5 degrees C were refractory to a lethal dose of aflatoxin compared to animals at 20 degrees-21 degrees C which exhibited a high mortality and marked liver damage. It is suggested that this decreased susceptibility is mediated through a stimulated microsomal drug-metabolizing system in cold environment.Entities:
