    Abstract

    Changes in peroxidation, amino acid uptake [α amino isobutyrate (AIB) C14], sialic acid content and lysosomal enzymes were followed in rats after carbontetrachloride poisoning and treatment with phospholipids (EPL). Uptake and retention of AIB by liver and brain increased after CCI4 poisoning. EPL had no effect on these changes. EPL diminished markedly, however, the excessive peroxidation caused by CCI4.
