Health assessment of gasoline and fuel oxygenate vapors: Neurotoxicity evaluation
Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed via inhalation to vapor condensates of either gasoline or gasoline combined with various fuel oxygenates to assess potential neurotoxicity of evaporative emissions. Test articles included vapor condensates prepared from "baseline gasoline" (BGVC), or gasoline combined with methyl tertiary butyl ether (G/MTBE), ethyl t-butyl ether (G/ETBE), t-amyl methyl ether (G...
متن کاملHealth assessment of gasoline and fuel oxygenate vapors: Reproductive toxicity assessment
Vapor condensates of baseline gasoline (BGVC), or gasoline-blended with methyl tertiary butyl ether (G/MTBE), ethyl t-butyl ether (G/ETBE), t-amyl methyl ether (G/TAME), diisopropyl ether (G/DIPE), ethanol (G/EtOH), or t-butyl alcohol (G/TBA) were evaluated for reproductive toxicity in rats at target concentrations of 2000, 10,000, or 20,000mg/m(3), 6h/day, 7days/week. BGVC and G/MTBE were asse...
متن کاملThe Toxicity of Gasoline Vapors Based on Knowledge of Fuel Components
The toxicity of chemicals in mixtures such as gasoline may differ greatly from that observed when the chemicals are tested as pure compounds. For example, metabolic activation is the critical first step in the development of toxicity after exposure to benzene. Gasoline components inhibit benzene metabolism and thus reduce benzene's toxicity. The extent to which inhibition occurs depends on the ...
متن کاملSubchronic inhalation toxicity of silver nanoparticles.
The subchronic inhalation toxicity of silver nanoparticles was studied in Sprague-Dawley rats. Eight-week-old rats, weighing approximately 253.2 g (males) and 162.6 g (females), were divided into four groups (10 rats in each group): fresh-air control, low dose (0.6 x 10(6) particle/cm(3), 49 microg/m(3)), middle dose (1.4 x 10(6) particle/cm(3), 133 microg/m(3)), and high dose (3.0 x 10(6) part...
متن کاملAcute and Subchronic Inhalation Toxicity of n-Octane in Rats
OBJECTIVES We have investigated the toxic effects of the inhalation of subchronic and acute levels of n-octane. METHODS The rats were exposed to n-octane of 0, 2.34, 11.68 and 23.36 mg/L (n = 5 rats/group/gender) in an acute inhalation test (Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) TG 403), or to 0, 0.93, 2.62 and 7.48 mg/L (n = 10 rats/group/gender) for a subchronic inha...
