Serum transaminases (GOT and GPT) and ornithincarbamyltransferase (OCT) were determined in rats treated with subtoxic doses of furan, acetylfuran, and methylene chloride. Significant increases of all enzymes were observed in methylene chloride treated rats, while only GOT increased in rats treated with acetylfuran and with furan + methylene chloride. Calculation of the GOT/GPT ratios indicated a pattern of toxic hepatitis only for rats treated with acetylfuran and furan + methylene chloride.
