Toxicity Profile for Tolualdehydes (1990)
Abstract
Tolualdehyde was a skin irritant in rabbits. No evidence of skin sensitization was found in volunteers treated with dilute solutions but sensitization reactions were apparently induced in guinea-pigs. In rats, the acute oral and dermal toxicity were low and pituitary gland weight was reduced following repeated oral administration. There was no evidence of mutagenicity in Ames bacterial tests.
What are Toxicity Profiles?
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.
