Effects of Perchloroethylene/Dru Interaction on Behavior and Neurological Function.

PB83174607

Publication Date	1977
Personal Author	Stewart, R. D.; Hake, C. L.; Wu, A.; Kalbfleisch, J.; Newton, P. E.
Page Count	153
Abstract	Perchloroethylene (PCE, tetrachloroethylene) vapor is commonly found in the workers' environment in dry cleaning establishments and industrial degreasing operations. Since many of these workers are sometimes additionally exposed to drugs which might exacerbate any effects of PCE on the central nervous system, a study was conducted to evaluate the potential interaction of PCE and such drugs on the behavioral and neurological function of volunteer subjects.
