Book Description
a-Methylstyrene is used to make heat-resistant acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene resins & polymers. This report studies the effects of a-methylstyrene on male & female rats & mice to identify potential toxic or cancer-related hazards. It concludes that exposure to a-methylstyrene in the air caused kidney tumors, & possibly mononuclear cell leukemia, in male rats. It concludes that a-methylstyrene caused liver cancer in female mice, & also possibly in male mice. Charts, tables, graphs & plates.

Technical Report on Toxicology and Carcinogenesis Studies of Cumene (CAS No. 98-82-8) in F344/N Rats and B6C3F1 Mice (Inhalation Studies)
Author: P. C. Chan
Publisher: DIANE Publishing
ISBN: 1437914543
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 206
Book Description
Cumene is produced in a modified Friedel-Crafts reaction process. Cumene is the principal chemical used in the production of phenol and acetone. Cumene is used: as a thinner; as a constituent of some petroleum-based solvents; in gasoline blending, diesel fuel, and high-octane aviation fuel; and as a raw material for peroxides and oxidation catalysts. Because cumene is a good solvent for fats and resins, it has been suggested as a replacement for benzene in many industrial applications. Cumene occurs naturally in petroleum and in a variety of foodstuffs. Cumene was nominated for study because of its high production volume, presence in gasoline and other fuels, potential for human exposure, and lack of existing carcinogenecity test data. Illus.

Chemistry and Analysis of Volatile Organic Compounds in the Environment
Author: H.J. Bloemen
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401121524
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
Interest in the occurrence and behaviour of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is increasing due to their adverse effects on the environment and human health. It is essential that information is made available on the various aspects of research on VOCs to enable better understanding and control of the various environmental and human health threats. The information in this book will be used to improve communication and understanding of the various approaches. In particular the potential and limitations of the described analytical methods will be essential in defining environmental studies and interpreting the results.
