EIGHTEEN MONTH STATUS SUMMARY TO MANUFACTURING CHEMISTS ASSOCIATION CHRONIC VAPOR INHALATION TOXICITY STUDY WITH VINYL CHLORIDE (ETHYLENE DERIVED) IN ALBINO RATS, ALBINO MICE AND GOLDEN HAMSTERS' MAY 13, 1975 IBT NO. 663-03222 I. Introduction A chronic vapor inhalation toxicity study with Vinyl Chloride (Ethylene Derived) was initiated on September 10, 1973, and terminated on September 10, 1974, Animals were then placed on observation. A summary of all data obtained through the eighteenth month is reported herein. CMA102274 }*tda<UtiaL B I O - T E S T 2aj*MatoA*A, II. Summary Exposure of mice to Vinyl Chloride was terminated after nine months of testing . At this time all surviving mice were placed under observation for the remainder of the investigation with the exception of the T-III group (2,500 ppm) which was sacrificed during the eleventh month. Rats and hamsters were exposed to Vinyl Chloride for twelve months before being placed under a nan-treated observation period. CMA102275 9dudiuai B I O * T E S T JjamAatateeS, 9*tc. 3 No significant dose related body weight effects were noted among any of the species tested. However, possible mortality effects among high and middle dose level animals have been noted. Hematologic studies were conducted on a selected number of rats after 18 months with no adverse effects being noted. Respectfully submitted, INDUSTRIAL BIO-TEST LABORATORIES, INC.

Chamber Concentration Data The daily range and mean of the Vinyl Chloride concentrations in each test chamber from exposure number 153 through the end of the twelfth testing month are shown in Table I. Data previous to this were presented in the seven-month status report. The overall average daily vapor concentrations were calculated to be 49.0, 206, 2517 and 2472 ppm for the T-I through T-IV chambers, respectively. Below is a summary of mean values for each sample port in each chamber; T-IV chamber had only one sample port.

The T-IV group which is composed of only females, and the females in the T-II group showed increases in mortality after the tenth month. Effects in mortality rates were also observed in mice. Mortality in all three test groups of mice were significantly higher than that of the control group. This phenomenon became apparent among females following the seventh test month, and was noted among males during the ninth month. A significant increase in mortality was noted among T-III male and female hamsters during the twelfth month of testing . CMA 102288 jtuLi&iual B I O - T E S T JiaJi&uitoAi&L, 9no.
