Gum benzoin (1989)
Abstract
A solution of 10% gum benzoin was not a skin irritant in guinea-pigs. There is evidence that the material can cause skin sensitization in man. It was of low acute toxicity in rats treated orally and in rabbits treated dermally.
Toxicity Profiles are comprehensive, yet concise, monographs on the hazard potential of individual chemicals. They are written by scientists specially trained in the evaluation of toxicity data and are prepared principally from primary information sources.
