ACUTE INHALATION TOXICITY
Procedure: For each exposure, six ChR-CD male rats, weighing 250 to 280 grains, were exposed to the tes
16-liter bell jar for four hours unless all died sooner. In order to generate a uniform aerosol, the te of 1020 steel was heated to 130C(maximum temperature used in storage)and sprayed via compressed air in
through a stainless steel pneumatic spray nozzle with an outside temperature of 150C. Chamber atmosph
test material were determined periodically by filtering a known volume of the atmosphere through a filt
pore size and determining the weigh*- increase of the paper and by a gas chromatographic method. The p tion me.- 'jrements were made with a cascade impactor. Gross and histopatholusic' examinations were perf dying di.L'ing an exposure and two rats surviving 14 days pose-exposure. The other sur.'ivors were sacrifi
