[Effect of carbon disulfide on the leukergic reaction in rabbits].

The leukergic reaction in rabbits exposed to carbon disulphide was studied. The investigations were carried out on 14 animals, where of 7 constituted the experimental group, the remainder the control group. The animals of the first group were subjected to CS2 action in a toxicological chamber over a varied period of time (from 16 to 103 days, 5 hrs daily), the CS2 concentration being 0,4 mg per litre of the flowing air. It was found that there was a significant increase in the agglutination test of leukocytes in animals of the experimental group (p less than 0,01). The several possibilities of interpreting the obtained results were discussed.
