1.0 INTRODUCTION In recent years the toxicity of hydrogen chloride (HC1) has become a
subject of considerable controversy. Particularly controversial questions regarding the toxicity of this gas include: 1) What concentration of HC1 in the air .will incapacitate humans? 2) Does HC1 gas or aerosol penetrate and cause damage to the lungs and result in severe post-exoosure effects? 3) What are he effects of HC1 ^inhalation on^ the respiratory system of humans during exposure? and 4) Is the rodent an appropriate jnodel for predicting the toxic e&g.ts. of HC1 -in man?
A number of studies have shown that, on the basis of mortality, HC1 is not an extremely potent chemical. Reported LCjq values include: 1) 40,989 and 13,745 ppm in rats and mice, respectively, exposed for 5 minutes to HC1 vapors and monitored for mortality for seven days post exposure; and 2) 3124 and 1108 ppm in rats and mice, respectively, exposed to HC1 vapors for 60 minutes and monitored for mortality for 14-days post exposure (1, 2). Southwest Research Institute (SwRl) have yielded comparable results, showing
~; that rather high concentrations of HC1 are necessary to cause lethality in rats, particularly during exposure.
In addition, in experiments conducted with nonhuman primates (baboons) at SwRI, animals tolerated high concentrations of HC1 without becoming inca pacitated or losing their escape performance capability. Although post exposure deaths did occur weeks or months after exposure to concentrations in exces^of^K5percent, the clinical signs exhibited by animals following exposure were not indicative of severe lung damage and edema which are characteristic of pulmonary irritants such as acrolein. The results of these experiments are not in agreement with claims by some investigators that the RD^q concentration of an irritant gas is incapacitating to man within a few
minutes (3, 4). Based on the data with baboons, a short exposure to 309 ppm (RD^q concentration in mice) of HC1 is likely to be irritating and cause discomfort and even pain, but is unlikely to incapacitate man or even cause severe post-exposure effects.
Although the experiments with nonhuman primates yielded definitive results as to the incapacitating potential of HC1, these experiments were not designed to investigate the effects of this irritant on respiratory response and Dulmonarv function. These effects need to be investigated in both a npnhinnan primate species and_ a rodent to ^ determine the 4l|iiH^jofu^.he...rip4`.nt^ as a model to predict potential effects of this gas in man.

3.0 WORK STATEMENT
3.1 Materials
Hydrogen chloride for the animal exposures will be Ultra Hi Purity
Grade (99.99% HCl) from Scientific Gas Products (SGP). Compressed gas mix
tures of HCl in air (if needed) will be certified as to their purity
(breathing quality air will be used) by SGP. The C02 for the challenge exper
iments will be purchased also from Scientific Gas Products. It will be pre
mixed to our specifications at 10% C02> 20 1% 02 and the balance nitrogen.
It will have the same specifications as SGP's "Biological Mixtures."
Breathing air for the animal exposures will be obtained from Liquid
Carbonics. It will be the same quality as used for laboratory respirators.
3.2 Animal Husbandry
3.2.1
Nonhuman Primates
Twelve young adult male baboons (Papio cynocephalus),
approximately 4 years of age and weighing 182 kg, will be used for this phase
of the study. This nonhuman primate species was selected because it is used
as a widely accepted model for man in many areas of respiratory research (5,
6, 7 and 8).
The animals will be acquired from the National Institute
of Health's Baboon Breeding Colony at Southwest Foundation for Biomedical Re
search (SFBR). The Foundation is a sister organization to SwRI and is located
approximately 1.5 miles from SwRI. Prior to use in the study, each animal
will be examined by the project veterinarian to ensure it is healthy and free
of respiratory problems, and will be tuberculin tested and given standard
parasite treatment.
The baboons will be housed at SFBR in individual standard
baboon cages, which allow ample space for exercise. Housing will be in a
5
controlled environment with proper ventilation (10-12 air changes per hour),
temperature (74F 2*), humidity (50% 20%) and a 12-hour light :dark
cycle. The animals will be fed once daily with a standard baboon 15% protein
ration, and water will be available _ad_ libitum. Cages will be cleaned
daily. Routine animal maintenance and care will be provided by personnel of
the Department of Laboratory Animal Medicine of the SFBR in accordance with
guidelines
the
The animals will be transported from SFBR to the Depart
ment of Fire Technology for exposure to HC1 and for CO2 challenge tests.
Following completion of exposure to HC1, each animal will be immediately
washed with water to remove residual HC1 and returned on the same day to
SFBR.
Animals transported to SwRI for CO2 challenge tests also will be
r
i returned to SFBR on the same day. During the experimental phases of the
project, animals will be observed daily by trained SwRI technicians and obser
vations will be recorded. For the first three days after exposure to HC1,
r animals will be observed twice daily or more often if warranted.
3.2.2
Rodents
Young adult male Sprague-Dawley rats (175-200 g) and
r- young adult male Swiss Webster mice (18-24 g) obtained from King Animal Labor I l_
atories, Oregon, Wisconsin will be used in this phase of the study. Upon
r receipt, these animals will be housed in the quarantine facility of the
Department of Fire Technology for at least two weeks. During the quarantine
i
period, observations of the health status of the animals will be made to
ensure that only healthy animals will be used in the study. At the end of
quarantine, the animals will be given a CO2 challenge test prior to a subse
quent exposure to HC1 or air and will then be housed in the post-exposure
06u w
6
facility of the Department of Fire Technology for the remainder of the study.
During quarantine and post exposure, the rats will be
housed individually in polycarbonate cages (10-1/2 in. w x 19 in. 1x8 in. h)
and the mice will be grouped three per polycarbonate cage (10-1/2 in. w x 19
in. 1x8 in. h). Housing will be in a controlled environment with proper
ventilation (18 air changes per hour), temperature (74*F 4`), humidity
(50Z 20Z) and a 12-hour light:dark cycle. Purina Laboratory Rodent Chow
(5001) and water will be available ad libitum, except during exposure phases
of the study. Bedding will consist of two inches of Anderson's Bed-O'Cobs .
Animals will be rotated to clean cages with fresh bedding and clean water
bottles and feeders twice weekly. Cages and bottles will be washed and sani
tized with Hunter Industrial Chemical's Departure. Animals will be observed
by trained SwRI personnel on a daily basis and observations will be re
corded. For the first three days after exposure to HC1, animals will be
observed twice daily or more frequently as warranted. Maintenance, care and
observation of animals will be performed by personnel of the Department of
Fire Technology under the direction of the project veterinarian.
3.3 Study Design
3.3.1
Nonhuman Primates
3.3.1.1 Animal Exposures
Groups of three (3) young adult, male baboons will be
exposed individually to 0, 50, 500 or 5000 ppm HC1 ^^^^j^^for 15 minutes in
a 200-L flow through chamber of similar dimensions as the NBS chamber (9).
The 5000 ppm and control (0 ppm) levels will be evaluated first. The control
will be exposed to air under the same conditions as the experimental groups.
Animals will be randomly assigned to the three experimental and one control
groups according to a computer-generated randomization system.

3.3.1.2 Respiratory and Pulmonary Function Evaluations The effects of HCl on the respiratory system of baboons
will be studied by monitoring respiratory parameters, pulmonary function using both invasive and non-invasive techniques, and pathological changes.
3.3,1.2.1 Respiratory Parameters In each experiment, the animal will be restrained,
lightly anesthetized with Ketamine (20 mg/kg) to minimize interfering body movements, and will be exposed to HCl gas (or air for control animals) in a
will be used here because it does not interact with the respiratory centers of
the brain and thus does not affect respiration. Chamber configuration and
dimensions and flow-through conditions will be selected to insure adequate 0
and acceptable CO2 levels for the animals. A Respitrace* respiratory moni
toring system will be used to monitor respiratory parameters of the animals
(10). The system consists of two Respiband" transducers placed around the
thorax and abdomen of the animal and calibrated with spirometry bag baseline
measurements. The transducer oscillator conditioner will be connected to a
calibrator/demodulator unit and the system will provide measurements of
changes in the respiratory rate and tidal volume. These measurements will be
obtained prior to exposure to HCl, during exposure to HCl and during the
recovery period
Changes in these parameters will be
correlated with changes in arterial blood gases (p2 and PCO2) which will be
measured by conventional techniques just prior to exposure to determine a
baseline, at 1-minute intervals during exposure, and during recovery. In
addition, clinical signs indicative of alterations in the respiratory system,
such as cyanosis and cough, will be recorded.

3.3.1.2.2 Pulmonary Function via Che Invasive Method of Johanson et al (5, 6, 7)
Baseline pulmonary function measurements will be obtained
for each animal three (3) days prior to exposure to HC1 (or air for control
animals) ^j^at^h^fourtl^iaj^nd threi^month^jjost^^xgosure^ Post-exposure .
measurements at subsequent time periods or for other exposure concentration
animals
may be added at the request of the Vinyl Institute Tech
nical Monitor after consultation with SwRI Project Manager.
For these measurements, an endotracheal tube will be
inserted into the anesthetized (Ketamine) animal and an esophageal balloon
will be placed in the respiratory tract to measure the transpulmonary pres
sure. Lung volume and rebreathing maneuvers will be performed with a large
syringe. Gas concentrations will be measured by mass spectrometry. Func
tional residual capability (FRC) will be determined by helium equilibration.
Inspiratory capacity (IC), defined as the volume of air needed to inflate the
lungs to a transpulmonary pressure of 40-cm HjO, will be determined. Total
lung capacity (TLC) will be obtained as the sum of FRO and IC. Residual
volume (RV) will be determined as the difference between TLC and the volume of
air in the lung after transpulmonary pressure of 40-cm i^O.
Gas exchange will be determined by measurement of dif
fusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLqq) by the rebreathing
technique and measurement of arterial blood gases. The presence of pulmonary
edema will be determined by measurement of lung tissue volume (Vt^s) using the
soluble gas technique and by chest antero-postero radiography using standard
conditions of lung inflation (40-cm HjOairway pressure) and tube to film
distance.
Airway resistance will be recorded by the technique of
high frequency oscillation, and flow/volume curves will be obtained using
9
sudden application of AO-cm
airway pressure.
The physiologic measurements to be performed are as
follows:
a. Respiratory rate
b. Arterial blood gases - calculate alveolar/arterial oxygen pressure difference
c. Pulmonary volumes: Inspiratory capacity, expira tory residual volume, functional residual volume, total lung capacity, vital capacity, pulmonary pressure/volume curves
d. Diffusion studies - rebreathing technique to mea sure DI*cq, DL/VA, lung tissue volume (Vtg)
e. Upper airway pressure
f. Flow/volume curves
g. Chest X-rays
3.3.1.2.3 Pulmonary Function via the CO^ Challenge Response Adapted from the Method of Wong and Alarie (11)
The CO2 challenge procedure has been proposed as a poten
tial noninvasive tool for the evaluation of pulmonary function (i.e., lung
disease) in guinea pigs. Since the ultimate goal of this work is prediction
of what levels of a given toxicant will cause effects in man, the CO2 chal
lenge method will be conducted with the baboons. The results from the method
will be compared with the well established but more invasive methods of
Johanson et al. (5, 6, 7). Furthermore, these results will be used as a
comparison with the response of rodents.
Each of the animals described in Section 3.3.1.1 will be
anesthetized with Ketamine and challenged for 10 minutes with a gas mixture
containing 10Z C02, 20Z O2 and 70Z N2 four days prior to exposure and on the
third day and at three months post exposure (one day before the use of the
noninvasive method). Post-exposure measurements at subsequent time periods
may be added at the request of the Vinyl Institute Technical
Monitor after consultation with the SwRI Project Monitor. The challenge will
R&S 117194
10
be conducted in the same 200-L chamber used for the HC1 and control exposures using a head-only exposure. Tidal volume (VT), respiratory frequency (f), and minute volume (VT-f) will be monitored using the Respitrace" system. Since a plethysmograph will not be used to monitor pulmonary changes, AF, the change in pressure within the plethysmograph cannot be measured. However, the deter mination of AF is not necessary since studies by Wong, et al. (12) and Schaper, et al. (13) have indicated that the level of response of VT (tidal v lume or inspiratory volume) and AF are similar except that VT is a more sensitive indicator of severe bronchoconstriction. Therefore, VT is the parameter of choice.
3.3.1.2.4 Lung Pathology Gross pathological and histopathological examination of
the complete respiratory system will be performed on all animals that die or are moribund. Examinations will also be made on other animals when indicated by the severity and type of pulmonary function changes, as designated by the Vinyl Institute Technical Monitor.
In addition, two separate groups of baboons (three/group) will be established to study pathological changes in the lung and upper respi ratory tract. One group will be exposed to a selected concentration of HC1 based on the results of the pulmonary function studies, and the other group will be used as a control (air only exposure). A gross and histopathologic evaluation of the lungs and upper respiratory system will be conducted on all HCl-exposed animals and on one of the three animals in the control group. In an effort to conserve a valuable resource, the others will be sacrificed and subjected to a gross and microscopic examination only if it is necessary to corroborate any observations.
R&S 117195

R&S 117196
For these studies, the respiratory tract of the animal
will be removed, inflated with 10Z formalin and examined grossly. The tract
will be embedded in 8 to 10 paraffin blocks. Approximately 12 sections of the
tract will be taken, with multiple levels of the trachea, bronchi and lungs.
In addition, the head of the animal will be decalcified prior to obtaining
sections of the nasal cavity. Six micron sections will be stained with hema
toxylin and eosin (H & E) stain for examination by light microscopy.
3.3.2
Rodent Studies
3.3.2.1 Animal Exposures
Male Sprague-Dawley rats (250-320 g) and Swiss-Webster mice
(20-30 g) will be used in these studies.
Groups of rats or mice
(nine/group/species) will be exposed to 0, 500 or 5000 ppm for 15 minutes.
Animals will be exposed head only in the same chamber as described for the
primates. The control (0 ppm) will be exposed to air under the same condi
tions as the experimental groups. Animals will be randomly assigned to exper
imental and control groups according to a computer-generated randomization
system.
3.3.2.2 Respiratory Parameters
The effects of HC1 on the respiratory parameters (tidal vol
ume, VT; respiratory frequency, f; minute volume, VT-f; and pressure change,
A P) of the rat and mouse will be determined by the use of body plethysmo-
graphs during head-only exposures. Six of the nine animals per group will be
placed in plethysmographs, while the remaining three will be cannulated for
blood gas determinations. For respiratory measurement, each animal will be
placed in a tubular aluminum restrainer modified to allow for the fitting of a
latex dam around the chest. In this manner an airtight seal will be obtained
between the animal and the restrainer without adversely restricting the
12
R&S 117197
animal's neck. A second, larger tube with a closed end will be placed over
each aluminum restrainer and sealed to the wall of the exposure chamber in
order to create an airtight chamber. Two ports will be placed on the plethys-
mograph for measurement of pressure changes and volume calibration. Pressure
changes caused by respiratory movements are sensed by Vacumed transducers and
volume calibration is facilitated by to-and-fro movements of air with a 2.0-mL
calibrated syringe. The signals from the six animals will be averaged and
monitored by a laboratory computer. Blood samples will be obtained just prior
to exposure and every three minutes during and after exposure and will be
analyzed for blood gases (p02 and pCf^) and blood pH. The effects on respira
tion and blood gases in rodents will be compared with those measured in non
human primates.
3.3.2.3
Pulmonary Function via the CO.-, Challenge Response as Adapted from the Method of Wong and Alarie (11)
The CO2 challenge procedure has been proposed as a potential
noninvasive tool for the evaluation of pulmonary performance (i.e., lung
disease) in guinea pigs. Although the relevance of this method to pulmonary
changes in man has not been validated, the use of this method in rodents in
conjunction with the above mentioned studies in primates may provide valuable
insight into both species differences and the validity of this method.
The effects of HC1 at the concentrations and duration of
exposure described above will be investigated using a modification of the
method of Wong and Alarie (11). Each of the animals described in Section
3.3.2.1 will be challenged for 10 minutes with a gas mixture containing 10Z
C02> 20Z 02> end 70Z N2 four days prior to exposure and on the third day and
at three months post exposure. Post-exposure measurements at subsequent time
periods (extra cost) may be added at the request of the Vinyl Institute Tech
nical Monitor after consultation with the SwRI Project Monitor. The challenge
13
R&S 117198
will be conducted in the same 200-L chamber used for the HC1 and control
exposures using a head-only exposure. Tidal volume (VT), respiratory fre
quency (f), minute volume (VT-f), and pressure change (AP) will be monitored
using the plethysmograph.
3.3.2.4 Lung Pathology
Gross pathology and histopathological examinations of the
complete respiratory system will be performed on all animals that die or are
moribund. Examinations will also be made on all other animals when indicated
by the severity and type of pulmonary function changes, as designated by the
Vinyl Institute Technical Monitor.
In addition, two groups per species (6 per group) will be
established to study pathological changes in the lung and upper respiratory
tract. One group will be exposed to a selected concentration of HC1 based on
the pulmonary function studies in primates and rodents, and the other group
will be used as a control (air only exposure). A gross and histopathologic
examination will be performed on the complete respiratory tracts of all
animals from all groups. Microscopic slides of the tracts will be prepared by
the same techniques as described for nonhuman primates.
3.4 Generation and Monitoring of Hydrogen Chloride
3.4.1
Generation of HC1 for Animal Exposures
Mixtures of hydrogen chloride (HC1) in air for the animal
exposures will be generated and monitored as described below. The concentra
tion range of HC1 will be from 50 ppm to 5000 ppm (v/v) and the flow rate will
be a fixed value within the range of 20-40 L/min (0.1-0.2 volume changes per
minute in the exposure chamber). The temperature of the atmosphere will be
22 3*C and the relative humidity will be 40 10 percent.
14
R&S 117199
Various concentrations of HC1 gas will be generated for
the animal exposures by mixing compressed gases as shown schematically in
Figure 1. The "test gas" cylinder will be either pure HC1 or one of a series
of specially-prepared, analyzed mixtures of HC1 in pure air. These will be
mixed (as shown in the figure) with breathing quality cylinder air to achieve
the desired HC1 concentration. Teflon and glass flowmeters will be used for
flow measurement of HCl-containing mixtures. Regular metal and glass flow
meters will be used for air. The air will be humidified prior to mixing with
the HC1 by running it through a water vapor saturator maintained at a constant
temperature T^ (as shown in Figure 1). The air stream will then be heated to
the desired test temperature (T2) in order to create the desired relative
humidity. Hydrogen chloride will then be mixed with this stream in order to
create the proper HCl concentration and relative humidity.
Reasonably stable concentrations of HCl have been
achieved in the laboratory when the humidity was less than about 50-percent
R.H. At higher humidity, yellow droplets appeared on the walls and there was
a greater rate of loss of HCl than under dry conditions. In general, even
under low humidity conditions, only about 50 percent of the HCl introduced
into a chamber could be found in the box atmosphere. For these reasons, the
humidity will be maintained on the low side of 50Z RH, rather than above
that. Even so, a calculated volume flow rate of HCl will not necessarily
produce the desired concentration. Therefore, the flow rates of HCl and air
will have to be adjusted while HCl concentration is being monitored in order
to insure that the system is ready for a test run.
3.4.2
Methods for Analysis of Hydrogen Chloride
Sampling and analysis of HCl will be performed by three
different techniques. These may be summarized as follows:
R&S 117200
15 Figure 1. Gas mixing and humidification setup
16
R&S 117201
1) Batch sampling is accomplished using dry soda-lime absorption tubes. Subsequent analysis of chloride ion in the aqueous extract from the soda lime is performed by titration (details of this procedure are given below).
2) Intermittent gas sampling may be done using a 60-mL syringe containing 5-mL of absorbing solution. Direct analysis of chloride ion in solution may be performed immediately by ion-selective electrode (ISE) or, using a different absorbing solution, subsequent analysis may be carried out by ionchromatography (IC).
3) Continuous sampling and direct analysis of HC1 may
be performed using a recirculating pump and a Hall
Conductivity Detector.
This detector must be
calibrated immediately prior to a run by technique
No. 2 above.
Techniques No. 1 and 2 are relied upon for a quantitative assessment of HC1, while the continuous analysis method is used mostly to establish and maintain a constant level of HC1 for the actual test runs.
The continuous monitoring system for HC1 is shown schematically in Figure 2. A high volume recirculating pump draws a portion of the atmosphere from the chamber through heated sampling lines. Most of this is recirculated, while a very small volume of sample (usually 1-4 cc/min) is extracted for analysis. This sample is diluted with pure, dry air (flowing at approximately 40 cc/min) and the mixture flows through the conductance cell concurrent with a low volume (4 mL/min) of n-propyl alcohol as the solvent. The effluent solvent stream is not recirculated because of the high concentration of choride ion (however, the pure solvent is run through an ion-exchange bed anyway). The continuous monitor must be calibrated prior to each test run. The HC1 is introduced step-wise into the volume being sampled (either the actual test chamber or another enclosed acrylic chamber) and a comparison is made between the mV output from the conductivity detector and the ppm analysis

from the syringe/ISE method described above. The calibration curve is deter
mined for the particular range of 3C1 concentration to be tested.
3.4.3
Sampling and Analysis of HC1 using Soda Lime Tubes
A method of collection of gaseous HC1 using tubes containing
dry soda lime has proven to be reliable, easy to use, and with absorption
efficiencies comparable to or better than solution impingers. This technique
yields a time-integrated analysis (i.e., the average concentration is deter
mined over some time period). If the time increments can be made small enough
(e.g., 2 minutes) an intermittent plot of concentration vs. time can be devel
oped. The time-integrated analyses by this method enable the development of a
reliable concentration-time (Cxt) product.
r
A summary of the method, including preparation of the tubes,
use conditions, desorption and analysis, is presented below. A major advan tage in the use of these tubes is their ability to be located almost anywhere l
in a laboratoryor full-scale fire test. The absorption tubes may be put at . Pl
the very end of the gas sampling line, with connecting tubing, pumps and t
rotameters far removed from the sampling tubes.
Approximately 0.5 g of 20-30 mesh soda lime (a mixture of
sodium hydroxide and calcium oxide) in a glass tube is used for collection of
HC1. The tubes are 1/8-inch (3-ram) I.D. and 4 inches (10 cm) long. The ends
of the tube are plugged with cotton. A suction pump, needle valve and
rotameter are employed to pull a specific volume of th^^WiBW^^^tmosphere
through the sorption tubes. Samples are taken over fixed time intervals. Due to difficulty in maintaining a specified flow rate, the calibrated rotameter is readfrequently over the sampling time interval and the total volume of gas is then calculated. Therotameters are calibrated to 25 *C. The equations below utilize this temperature for normalizing the concentrations of the
c
&
R&S 117204
19
gases. Since concentrations are calculated on the basis of volume/volume, only the equivalent flow of sample gas at the location of the rotameter need be determined. No conversion factor is necessary to calculate concentration at the sampling point. The ideal molar volumes are used in these calcula tions .
The soda-lime absorbent, including the cotton wadding, is desorbed in 10-mL deionized water, and the solution is swirled briefly. After at least thirty minutes of standing, a three-mL aliquot is extracted for HC1 determination. This sample is adjusted to pH 8-10 (phenolphthalein end point) with 0.1 N HNO^. Titration of HC1 is performed to a visual end point (sdiphenyl carbazone) with mercuric nitrate, in accordance with a standard procedure (14). The titrant is 0.014-0.0014 N, depending on the expected concentration of chloride.
Concentration of HC1 in the gas phase is calculated as shown below: HC1, ppm - S * N * R * 24.5 * (1/V) * 1000 where HC1, ppm concentration of HC1 in the gas phase, ppm; S mL titrant used for sample (corrected for that required for blank); N = normality of titrant; R = ratio of volume of desorbent solution (usually 10 mL) to that of aliquot (usually 3 mL), e.g. 10/3; 24.5 * molar volume of ideal gas, VL/p mole, at 25C and 1 atmosphere; 1/V * Reciprocal of total volume, in liters, of atmosphere sampled (volume rate of flow times time); 1000 a conversion factor.

3.5 Statistical Analysis
3.5.1
Randomization
The study design is based on usage of groups of three (3)
baboons exposed to 0, 50, 500 or 5,000 ppm HC1; a similar design also will be
used on the twelve selected rodents. Of concern is the random allocation of
the animals to the four exposure groups, and the test sequence. Allocation to
the exposure groups will be accomplished by assigning the twelve animals
(either baboons or rodents) a number from 1 to 12, generating a random se
quence of these 12 numbers (e.g., 1-7-4-3-10-9-2-12-6-8-5-11), and then using
the first three numbers for the animals assigned to 0 ppm HC1 exposure, the
next three numbers for the animals assigned to 50 ppm HC1 exposure, etc. The
random sequence will be obtained by using a computer generated random number
routine.
The test sequence, or run-order, will be based on the BC1
concentrations. The 5,000 ppm will be evaluated first, followed by the 0, 500
and 50 levels. The three animals assigned to each level will be tested to
gether before moving to the next level. A random run-order may be more desir
able after the 5000 ppm test is completed. If so, this will be accomplished
by randomly choosing the numbers 0, 50 and 500, and using the resultant se
quence as the run-order following the 5000 ppm test.
3.5.2
Data Analysis
The purpose of the data analysis will be to lend support
to the accomplishment of the study objectives. Objective 1 concerns evalu
ating Che validity of the rodent as a model for determining the pulmonary
toxicity of HC1 in man. This will be done by utilizing graphs of the respira
tory parameters (i.e., respiratory rate and tidal volume) versus the HC1
concentration for both the rodent and the nonhuman primate samples.
21
Least-square curves fits will be made of the respiratory parameter of interest versus the HC1 concentration for each animal group. The two curves then will be compared to determine if they have any statistical differences (i.e., are they coincident, parallel, or intersecting?). This will be accomplished by testing for equality the coefficients of the resultant curves. The statistical test will be a two-sample t-test for coefficient equality.
Several precautions will be taken in the above statisti cal procedures. These will include checking to determine if the data provide a good fit to the proposed curves (i.e., examining residual plots and other regression diagnosticis), checking if the data are normally distributed (i.e., using normal probability plots), and determining if the variability of the respiratory parameter is the same for the two curves (i.e., checking for equal variances). Depending on these results several alternative procedures may be needed. For example, and inerrant data point may need to be re-run or de leted, a transformation (such as to a log scale) may be helpful, or a nonnormal statistical test may be desired. These alternatives will be pursued as they are needed or found to be appropriate.
The three repeat observations at each HC1 level will be very helpful in assessing the adequacy of the curve fit and in obtaining a good measure of the variability of the curve. The results of this analysis may suggest that more data are needed to adequately describe the curves. If this occurs, a secondary test design will be developed and proposed for future work. If not, then the above test plan and analysis will be utilized.
Objectives 2 and 3 will be evaluated in a different manner. Objective 2 will be assessed utilizing the pathological and medical data obtained from analyzing the respiratory tracts of the animals. The
R&S 117206
22
results will be observational and subjective so no statistical techniques are proposed here.
Objective 3 concerns evaluating the CO2 challenge method. The results with the baboons will be compared to both the response of the rodents as well as to the results of Wong and Alarie, et al. (11). A similar analysis will run as that given under Objective 1. The respiratory variables of interest will be the tidal volume (VT) and respiratory frequency (f) of the animals and the predictor variable will be the HC1 concentration.

Mr. Switzer has had extensive experience as a researcher in the design,
data analysis and interpretation involved in physiological/behavioral
experimentation.
Previous work has included an interdisciplinary
approach to the study of microwave health effects involving cortical
ultrastructure, hematologic profiles and behavioral studies.
At Southwest Research Institute, the majority of his work has been involved with the field of combustion toxicology. Over the last six years, Mr. Switzer has conducted numerous large-scale and hundreds of small-scale combustion experiments to elucidate the toxic nature of combustion atmospheres. This experimentation has utilized numerous designs, combustion techniques, behavioral paradigms and animal models; and covered an extensive range of materials, as well as pure gases. Currently, this experience is being combined with ongoing experimen tation in the development of the theoretical and practical aspects of combustion toxicity testing and its relation to hazard analysis. In addition, he has introduced sophisticated blood collection and analy tical techniques involving rodents, primates and other species for research involving correlation of hematologic parameters to behavioral and physiological effects. These studies have included toxicity of combustion atmospheres and pure gases, drug-gas interactions, crash impact survivability, and methemoglobin kinetics.

HOWARD W. STACY Research. Scientist Department of Fire TechnologyDivision of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering
B.S., Zoology, Washington State University, 1975
As a researcher and laboratory manager in the field of combustion toxico logy, Mr. Stacy has been involved in the design, development and applica tion of a variety of laboratory-scale combustion toxicity testing strate gies and devices. His experience has been primarily in the area of applying innovative research and testing techniques to fit specific fire exposure situations. He was primarily responsible for the design and development of a radiant heat furnace for the generation of combustion products for toxicological evaluation. This device is under consideration for use as an alternative sample heating method for laminated or composite materials in the National Bureau of Standard's toxicity test method. Mr. Stacy is also familiar with standard and non-standard large- and smallscale flammability evaluations and the analysis of combustion gases from these tests.
Mr. Stacy has interacted extensively with the fire science community in the development of the area of combustion toxicology. He was a representative on the National Bureau of Standards Ad Hoc Smoke Toxicity Advisory Commit tee and has served on the U.S. Technical Advisory Group for International Standards Organization TC92/SC3 on Toxic Hazards in Fire. He was respon sible for the development and reporting of all the laboratory work in the Weyerhaeuser/National Forest Products Association particiation in the NBS interlaboratory evaluation.

Dr. Moore was commissioned in tbe United States Army Veterinary Medical Corps in September, 1966, and served as a Veterinary Researcb Officer until August, 1968. Dr. Moore has authored or coauthored papers pertaining to breeding and utilization of baboons and chimpanzees for biomedical research, nursery rearing of infant baboons, management of a chimpanzee after cross circulation with a hepatitis patient, immunogenicity of staphylococcal enterotoxin B for Afacaca muiatta, parasites and their control in non human primates, chioramphenicoi-pentobarbitol interaction in baboons, rearing of conventional and gnotobiotic nonhuman Primates (baboons, chimpanzees and marmosets), economics of nonhuman primate conservation, age estimation by dental characteristics in baboons, production of a rhesus (Afacaca mulatto) X baboon (Papio cynocephaius) hybrid (first time ever accomplished), ovarian function in hyster ectomized cynomoiogous monkeys (Macaca fascicularis) and multiple tuberculosis outbreak in baboons. Dr. Moore has a broad base of experience in experimental surgery in nonhuman primates. This experience includes the contribution of a chapter on experimental surgery in the book. Comparative Reproduction in Nonhuman Primates by E.S.E. Hafex; development of a model for perfusion of the isolated brain in baboons; production of the first baboon infant by surgical embryo transfer methods; delivery of germ-free nonhuman primate infants; and multiple experimental procedures on the reproductive tract of both male and female baboons, i.e., cannulation of oviducts for chronic fluid production endometrial tissue collec tion for cell physiology studies, implantation of intrauterine devices, testicular biopsies, and cannulation of vas deferens with devices to block sperm transport. His experience also includes transplantation of kid neys, in vivo perfusion of kidneys and livers, cannulation of the bile duct for chronic collections, lung lobectomies, insertion of a Dacron graft as a total arterial replacement for the thoracic portion of the descending aorta, and applying inflating cuffs on the coronary arteries to establish myocardial infarcts. He has experience in orthopedic procedures that include insertion of intramedullary leg prosthesis and evalua tion of total knee joint prosthesis.
During the period 1972-9, Dr. Moore managed one of the largest multispecied nonhuman primate research programs in the world. Baboons and chimpanzees were the chief research animals. He designed and devel oped new animal facilities including an animal research hospital, outdoor group cages and indoor individual caging systems. He also planned and developed the first semi-free ranging baboon breeding corral at the Southwest Foundation for Research and Education. This facility is a six acre circular compound, housing 450-500 animals, and producing 150-200 infant baboons for research use annually
