Metabolism of 1,3-butadiene to 1,2-epoxybutene-3 in rats follows saturation kinetics. Comparative investigation of inhalation pharmacokinetics in mice also revealed a saturation pattern. For both species "linear" pharmacokinetics apply at exposure concentrations below 1000 ppm 1,3-butadiene; saturat
## Abstract Hepatotoxicity of vinylidene chloride (1,1βdichloroethylene, VDC) in rats was evidenced by increases of serum enzyme activities of the aminotransferases (GOT, GPT) and sorbitol dehydrogenase (SDH). Simultaneous treatment with ethanol (4.8 g kg^β1^ p.o.) totally inhibited these hepatotox
