Biologic testing method using infusoria Tetrahymena pyriformis for evaluating serum toxicity in patients with acute carbon monoxide toxicity
Infusoria Tetrahymena pyriformis are effective as test objects to evaluate endotoxicity degree in acute occupational intoxications with carbon monoxide. Biologic test (for Tetrahymena pyriformis) and biochemical markers of endogenic intoxication appear to have strong correlation
