title: Effects of O,O,O-tri-n-alkyl phosphorothioates on acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity in rats.
abstract: Four homologous O,O,O-tri-n-alkyl phosphorothioates were tested to prevent liver damage induced by acetaminophen in fed and starved rats. In fed rats, trimethyl, triethyl and tri-n-propyl esters prevented effectively the increase of serum transaminase activities. In starved rats, however, tri-n-propyl ester became ineffective and tri-n-butyl ester showed a slightly protective effect.
