2-Bromo-4,6-dinitroaniline (1991)


Abstract


2-Bromo-4,6-dinitroaniline caused mild eye irritation in rabbits but did not induce skin irritation when tested in solution. It was of low acute oral toxicity in rats, although effects on the liver, lung, heart and nervous system were seen at high oral doses. Mutagenicity was demonstrated in Ames bacterial tests and some evidence of genotoxicity was apparent in mammalian cells in culture.


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.
