Abstract
Serum alanine aminotransferase(ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), hepatic glutathione, glutathione S-transferase(GST), cytochrome P450 and cytochrome P450 reductase activity were measured to investigate the effects of hepatic detoxication system and metabolic activities of carbendazim in Sprague Dawley(S.D.) male rat at dose levels of 375, 750 or 1,500 mg/kg body weight. Serum alanine aminotransferase(ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase(AST) activities were slightly increased in all test groups after 120 minutes of administration. Glutathione was increased about 20% at high and medium dose level within 120 minutes after administration, while activity of glutathione S-transferase was decreased $36{\sim}50%$. However, the enzyme activity was recovered from all test groups after 240 minutes of administration. Cytochrome P450 and activity of cytochrome P450 reductase were decreased $25{\sim}50%$ until 120 minutes after administration, but recovered after 240 minutes.
