toluene and Paralysis

toluene has been researched along with Paralysis in 10 studies

methylbenzene : Any alkylbenzene that is benzene substituted with one or more methyl groups.

Paralysis: A general term most often used to describe severe or complete loss of muscle strength due to motor system disease from the level of the cerebral cortex to the muscle fiber. This term may also occasionally refer to a loss of sensory function. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p45)
