Abstract
1 . Carbon tetrachloride was administered by stomach tube to rabbits and its distribution in fat, liver, kidney and muscle studied by gas liquid chromatography, during the next 48 hr. 2 . Chloroform, hexachloroethane and two unidentified chlorinated metabolites were detected in the tissues. 3 . Hexachloroethane may arise by dimerization of free trichloromethyl radicals.Keywords
