Additional information on results:
Inhalation of 0.0018-0.0083 mg/L 1,4-dichlorobut-2-ene for 2.5 months decreased DNA and RNA in rat spermatogenesis; 1st and 2nd order spermatocytes, spermatids, and spermatozoids. The test substance caused severe dystrophy, necrobiosis, and necrosis in the cells of spermatogenic epithelium. Endothelium of the associated blood vessels proliferated and the walls were swollen. Increased preimplantation mortality of embryos sired by the treated males with untreated females.
