Abstract
The effect of a single sublethal dose of dieldrin on values for plasma corticosterone (free), nonesterified fatty acids, blood glucose, glucose tolerance, blood pyruvic acid, blood lactic acid, and liver lactic acid has been investigated. The blood glucose level is elevated and glucose tolerance is lowered, Indicating an impairment in the utilization of glucose. A significant increase is observed in the levels of other constituents. A correlation of these effects with adrenocortical activity has been attempted.Keywords
