Chlorinated phenols are widely used in the manufacture of biocides and wood preservatives. 2,4-dichlorophenol administered perorally 3 times a week at a dose of 40 mg in 0.2 ml of olive oil per kg of body weight to guinea pigs increased lipid peroxidation in liver and adrenals after 2 weeks of treatment. A high intake of ascorbic acid (50 mg/animal/day) significantly decreased lipid peroxidation in the liver of 2, 4-dichlorophenol treated guinea pigs in comparison to guinea pigs with low ascorbic acid intake (2 mg/animal/day). 2,4-dichlorophenol accumulation was also decreased in the liver of animals with high ascorbic acid intake. Increased daily intake of vitamin C to persons involved in production and use of chlorophenoxy herbicides is recommended.

D008099 Liver A large lobed glandular organ in the abdomen of vertebrates that is responsible for detoxification, metabolism, synthesis and storage of various substances. Livers
D008297 Male Males
D012044 Regression Analysis Procedures for finding the mathematical function which best describes the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variables. In linear regression (see LINEAR MODELS) the relationship is constrained to be a straight line and LEAST-SQUARES ANALYSIS is used to determine the best fit. In logistic regression (see LOGISTIC MODELS) the dependent variable is qualitative rather than continuously variable and LIKELIHOOD FUNCTIONS are used to find the best relationship. In multiple regression, the dependent variable is considered to depend on more than a single independent variable.

D001205 Ascorbic Acid A six carbon compound related to glucose. It is found naturally in citrus fruits and many vegetables. Ascorbic acid is an essential nutrient in human diets, and necessary to maintain connective tissue and bone. Its biologically active form, vitamin C, functions as a reducing agent and coenzyme in several metabolic pathways. Vitamin C is considered an antioxidant.
