TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Animal Data
Inhalation 30-minute LC50: 800,000 ppm in rats
Oral ALD : >1,000 mg/kg in rats
Effects in animals from single high exposure by inhalation
include anesthesia and irregular heartbeat (cardiac
arrythmias). Repeated inhalation exposures produced altered
respiratory function. Long-term studies showed no
significant clinical, blood chemistry or pathological
effects following repeated exposures. The effects in
animals from long-term ingestion of this material include
slight alterations in blood chemistry and body weight gain.
No other clinical, biochemical or pathological signs of
toxicity have been observed.
Tests in animals demonstrate no carcinogenic activity and no
developmental or reproductive toxicity. The compound does
not produce heritable genetic damage in animals or genetic
damage in bacterial and mammalian cell cultures.
