Xylene isomers and mixed xylenes were administered to male and female Sprague-Dawley rats to evaluate their effects on standard toxicological parameters which included body and organ weights, hematology, serum chemistries, urinalysis and histopathological examination. In the initial study, m, o- or
The technical grade of xylenes (mixed) (hereafter termed xylenes) contains the three isomeric forms and ethylbenzene (percentage composition shown above). The annual production for 1985 was approximately 7.4 x 108 gallons. Xylenes is used as a solvent and a cleaning agent and as a degreaser and is a
It is unclear whether the pneumotoxicity observed with bromobenzene (BB) in phenobarbital-induced rats is related to BB bioactivation in lung, liver or both. To help differentiate pulmonary from hepatic bioactivation, BB was administered alone and in combination with p-xylene, which inhibits
Musk xylene (MX) (1,3,5-trinitro-2-t-butylxylene) is a nitromusk perfume ingredient that although uniformly negative in a battery of genotoxicity tests, produces a high incidence of liver tumors in mice. The purpose of this work was to characterize the profile and dose-response relationship of
An analysis of sperm abnormalities can be used as a rapid method to determine the mutagenic potential of chemical agents as well as the toxic potential of chemicals on the whole animal. O-Xylene was investigated for its potential mutagenicity by the sperm abnormality assay. Sprague Dawley rats 10-16
The blood/air partition coefficient is one of the important parameters for understanding the pharmacokinetics of organic solvents. In conventional pharmacokinetic models, the partition coefficient has been used as a constant value for each solvent. However, blood triglyceride content varies
Four fragrances, 6-acetyl-1,1,2,4,4,7-hexamethyltetraline (AHTN), 1,3,4,6,7,8-hexahydro-4,6,6,7,8,8-hexamethylcyclopenta-gamma-2-ben zopyran (HHCB), musk ketone and musk xylene were tested for developmental toxicity in Sprague-Dawley rats (25/group, 3 groups/fragrance, 2 fragrances/corn oil
Previous research showed that acute exposure to dichloromethane (DCM) produced a selective reduction in peak N30 of flash evoked potentials (FEPs) in rats. In contrast, acute exposures to p-xylene or toluene selectively reduced FEP peak N160. The present experiments compared the effects of DCM (log
Benzene ranks 16th in production volume for chemicals produced in the United States, with approximately 9.9 billion pounds being produced in 1984, 9.1 billion pounds in 1983, and 7.8 billion pounds in 1982. This simplest aromatic chemical in used in the synthesis of styrene (polystyrene plastics and
1,4-Phenylenebis(methylene)selenocyanate (p-XSC) inhibits chemically induced tumors in several laboratory animal models. To understand its mode of action, we synthesized p-[14C]XSC, examined its excretion pattern in female CD rats and also the nature of its metabolites. p-[14C]XSC was synthesized
Kosakonia radicincitans GXGL-4A, a free-living nitrogen-fixing (NF) bacterial strain isolated from maize (Zea mays L.) roots was found to have ability to degrade aromatic hydrocarbons. In this study, we describe the main morphological characteristics of bacterium, aromatic hydrocarbon-degrading
