Effects of Cl 2 exposure on the numbers of cells in BAL fluid. Data for control and Cl2 exposed animals that were sacrificed 10 minutes (A), 1 hour (B) and 24 hours (C) after Cl2 exposure. Cl2 exposure caused a significant increase in total leukocytes compared to controls at 1 hour and 24 hours, the effect of which was attenuated by pre-treatment with DMTU at one hour and post treatment with DMTU at 24 hours. (n = 6 per group; * p < 0.05., **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001).
