- Concentration:
- 350 mg/m, 1200 mg/m3 , 3200 mg/m3 , 4400 mg/m3, 10 000 mg/m3
- No. of animals per dose:
- six male Swiss-Webster mice
- Details on study design:
- Exposure to Swiss-Webster mice (vapour plus aerosol) at concentration of 350 mg/m, 1200 mg/m3 , 3200 mg/m3 , 4400 mg/m3, 10 000 mg/m3
Results and discussion
- Results:
- There was used respiratory depression in mice as an index of irritative response in the upper respiratory tract. Three of six male Swiss-Webster mice developed a decline in respiratory rate (below 50% of the normal rate) during 1 min of exposure to 10 000 mg/m3 (1700 ppm vapour and aerosols) of white spirit (Stoddard solvent; 15% aromatics). A similar decrease in respiratory rate did not occur at 4400 mg/m3 (770 ppm).
Exposure to mice of either 350 mg/m3 (56 ppm vapour) or 1200 mg/m3 (vapour plus aerosol) of dearomatized white spirit (140° Flash Aliphatic Solvent) did not induce respiratory tract irritation or change in respiratory rate
Applicant's summary and conclusion
