Disease relevance of Tetrachlorethylene

 

Psychiatry related information on Tetrachlorethylene

  • Observations on the performance of the same animals in an open-field situation revealed that ambulation was affected in experiments with tetrachlorethylene immediately after exposure while preening pattern was changed after exposure to dichlormethane [6].
  • IP administration of 1.0 g/kg body weight of tetrachloroethylene at 0900 h produced a remarkable phase-shift (4.0 +/- 0.9 h) in the activity rhythm and an increase in the slope of fluctuation (0.4 +/- 0.1) in contrast to a relatively smaller decrease in the total amount of spontaneous locomotor activity [7].
  • We evaluated colour vision in 35 dry-cleaners exposed to perchloroethylene (PCE) and in a paired number of controls matched for sex, age, alcohol consumption and cigarette smoking [8].
  • A decision making process was implemented in Vermont when it became necessary to have an interim ambient air exposure level to test for tetrachloroethylene contamination in the water, air, and soil of a community [9].

Associations of Tetrachlorethylene with other chemical compounds

  • The order of potency for inhibition (IC50) was PERC (270 microM) > TOL (720 microM) > TCE (1525 microM) [27].
  • Anoxic biodegradation was of prime importance for halomineralization of pulp bleaching organohalogens but could also lead to toxic metabolites such as vinyl chloride from tri- and tetrachloroethene in anoxic soil [28].
  • While many anaerobic microbial communities are capable of reductively dechlorinating tetrachloroethene (PCE) and trichloroethene (TCE) to dichloroethene (DCE), vinyl chloride (VC), and finally ethene, the accumulation of the highly toxic intermediates, cis-DCE (cDCE) and VC, presents a challenge for bioremediation processes [29].
  • We analysed the frequency data from workers grouped by internal systemic burdens of plutonium (less than 148, 148-740 and greater than 740 Bq) and to those exposed to five chemicals in the workplace: perchloroethylene, beryllium, carbon tetrachloride, benzene, and trichloroethylene [30].
  • Bioactivation of tetrachloroethylene. Role of glutathione S-transferase-catalyzed conjugation versus cytochrome P-450-dependent phospholipid alkylation [31].
