Interaction between duck hepatitis virus and DDT in ducks

January 1, 1971

Injections of duck hepatitis virus (DVH) decreased, and exposure to DDT increased, hepatic microsomal mixed-function oxidase activity. Injection of DFV prior to exposure to DDT did not prevent stimulation of hepatic microsomal mixed-function oxidase activity by DDT and may have enhanced it.
