carbon tetrachloride has been researched along with Pneumococcal Infections in 2 studies
Carbon Tetrachloride: A solvent for oils, fats, lacquers, varnishes, rubber waxes, and resins, and a starting material in the manufacturing of organic compounds. Poisoning by inhalation, ingestion or skin absorption is possible and may be fatal. (Merck Index, 11th ed)
tetrachloromethane : A chlorocarbon that is methane in which all the hydrogens have been replaced by chloro groups.
Pneumococcal Infections: Infections with bacteria of the species STREPTOCOCCUS PNEUMONIAE.
