The effects of the exposure of human erythrocytes to different concentrations of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin were studied. Particular attention was paid to lipid peroxidation, haemoglobin oxidation, and changes in the activity of catalase and glutathione peroxidase. Human erythrocytes at a 5% haematocrit were incubated with 2,3,7,8-TCDD at concentrations of 0.2 ppm to 1.6 ppm (ng-microg...
