The aim of the paper was to compare the erythrocyte serum and hepatic chomogenate antioxidative factors in order to assess their involvement in the detoxification events. The catalase and superoxiddismutase levels, important factors of the cellular defence, were sensitivity modulated in an acute experiment on Wistar rats. Carbofuran was administered in a non-lethal dose (7 mg/b.w.) single or in the presence of certain antioxidative agents (Vitamin E, Caffeine, Aspirin) EDTA and Cysteine for their role in protecting membranes against oxidative damage. The erythrocyte parameters (SOD, Catalase) were well related to seric factors, especially ceruloplasmin level, with varied magnitudes. GGT a marker of hepatotoxicity and G1-DH, a mitochondrial marker, were in a good correlation with erythrocyte factors. The changes seem to modulate a transmembranary disturbance process, as in hepatocyte pictures.
