TY - JOUR PY - 1993// TI - Kinetics of trichloroethylene elimination from venous blood after acute inhalation poisoning JO - Journal of toxicology - clinical toxicology A1 - Kostrzewski, P.

The trichloroethylene concentration of venous blood was determined by gas chromatography with headspace analysis; urinary trichloroacetic acid was assayed by the colorimetric method of Fujiwara. The kinetics of blood trichlorethylene (t1/2 21.7 h) and the urinary elimination of trichloracetic acid over six days were used to calculate the total inhalation exposures. Blood trichlorethylene was diagnostically more relevant than urinary trichloracetic acid.
