PROJECT PROPOSAL Date: September 5, 1965 Proiect Title: Biochemical effects of tobacco smoke exposure in experimental animals. Proiect No.: T-7710 Oriain of Proiect: Biology Group File No.: S-11-2-4 Coordinator: M Bi imoria Work Area: 04 ADDroval: PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND OBJECTIVE This study will investigate some of the mechanisms that exist in the animal body that protect against or enhance the effect of insult due to chemicals or mainstream/ambient tobacco smoke. It will involve measuring glutathione, ascorbate and other protective chemicals and enzymes in tissues of animals exposed to chemicals or tobacco smoke.
