In this assessment of the effect of the solvent, Toluene, on pregnancy and in utero development of the rat, dosages of O, 250, 750, 1500 and 3000 ppm were administered by inhalation for a period of 6 hours a day from Days 6 to 15 of pregnancy inclus

25、ive. On Day 20 surviving females were sacrificed and subjected to post mortem examination. and foetuses subsequently examined for skeletal and visceral changes. Litter values were determined 2. Exposure to Toluene was associated with a dosage-related maternal response at 750 ppm and above. At 750 pp

26、m, reaction was confined to awareness to exposure and closed/half-closed eyelids; this is a non-specific response to exposure and is not considered to be biologically meaningful. Additional responses at 1500 ppm were uncoordinated gait, ataxia and hypersensitivity to knock on chamber wall. Bodyweigh

27、t gain was lower than controls during the first two days of treatment. At the highest dosage of 3000 ppm, similar signs were observed, as well as abnormal limb movements, lachrymation, increased respiration and, on isolated occasions, salivation and nystagmus of the eyeball. consumption reduced duri

28、ng the treatment period. was recorded during the first two days of treatment. Water consumption was increased and food Initial bodyweight loss 3. Treatment-related effects of maternal exposure on embryofoetal development were confined to 1500 and 3000 ppm and included an exposure-related, but minima

29、l reduction in litter and mean foetal weights, and an increase in foetuses with reduced or unossified sternebrae. Conclusion Within the context of this study into the effect of inhaled Toluene on pregnancy and in utero development of the rat, exposures of 1500 and 3000 ppm were associated with obvio

30、us signs of maternal and embryofoetal toxicity. The no-effect level for specific maternal toxicity and embryofoetal development (to Day 20) was considered to be 750 ppm. It is concluded that exposure to Toluene via the inhalation route does not show any selective effects on embryofoetal development.
