[Relationship between accumulation of o,p'-dichlorodiphenyl-dichloroethane in the adrenal glands and their function and structure].

Over a periof of 12 days following introduction of o'p-dichlordiphenyl-chlorethane to dogs in a dose of 25 mg/kg a sizable accumulation of the compound in the adrenal tissue, a drastic inhibition of its function and deragment of the suprarenal cortex structure are observed. After a 28-day administration of the compound the functional and structural upsets in the adrenals gain in strength, whereas it concentration in this organ declines.
