Abstract
The content of nicotinamide coenzymes in the liver and myocardium was studied in experiments on male rats 24 h after dichloroethane poisoning (0.5 ml/kg by the intragastric route). Parallel with disturbance of the morphological structure of the liver and myocardium and an increase in alanine and asparagine aminotransferase activity in the blood serum, dichloroethane was shown to reduce the concentration of nicotinamide coenzymes and to disturb the ratio between their oxidized and reduced forms in these organs.
