title: [Essential fatty acids for ectodermic organs].
abstract: Damage of exocrine pancreas liver and lungs was induced by CCl4, probably because an unbalancement of essential fatty acids (EFA). The present research is made on the rats, injected with CCl4 subcutaneously and kept with diets at variable composition in linoleic acid, proceeding to the extraction of these organs for the gaschromatografic determination of fatty acids. CCl4 reduces the arachidonic acid in liver, pancreas and lungs of the injected rats and the dietary linoleic acid does not modify this picture in the organs.
