摘要：There are several basic principles that apply to the clinicopathologic syndrome produced by polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). They are as follows: The degree of halogenation and position of the halogen atoms determine the potency of PCB, PBB, CDD, CDF and CN; in a given species of animals, the clinicopathologic syndrome induced by PCB is comparable to that induced by polybrominated biphenyls (PBB), chlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (CDD), chlorinated dibenzofurans (CDF), and chlorinated naphthalenes (CN) when an equitoxic dose is achieved; The clinicopathologic syndrome is different in each species of animals; Different species of animals vary in their susceptibility to intoxication; intoxication is more readily effected in young animals that in adults; at lethal doses the time between exposure and death is prolonged (greater than 2 weeks).
