Abstract Liver damage was investigated in rat using serum enzyme activities measurements. Responses were recorded 24 h after whole body inhalation exposure to vapors of bromobenzene, carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, o-dichlorobenzene, 1,2-dichloroethane and dimethylformamide as model toxicants. First, rats were exposed during a single 4 h period to different concentrations of each solvent and the minimally active concentration was determined. Second, repeated exposures to chemicals at this concentration level (6 h daily, 2 or 4 days) were used in order to examine whether hepatotoxicity was enhanced. GLDH and SDH are more sensitive and more constant indices than GOT and GPT. It appears that a single exposure period induced more marked serum activities enhancement than repeated exposures
