Abstract
Tetrachloroethylene was indicated in the accidental death of a man clearing a line of a dry-cleaning establishment. Blood and tissue concentrations were measured by gas chromatography-mass fragmentography. Distribution of tetrachloroethylene was consistent with its lipophilic properties, being highest in the brain and lowest in the lung tissue.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
