Toxic Hazards Research Unit

Abstract

The research programs of the Toxic Hazards Research Unit (THRU) for the period of June 1976 through May 1977 are reviewed in this report. Acute and subchronic inhalation toxicity studies were conducted on decalin. Studies were carried out on the oncogenicity of inhaled hydrazine, 1,1-dimethylhydrazine and monomethylhydrazine. Acute oral, dermal and inhalation toxicity studies were conducted on a large variety of chemical agents used by the Air Force and Navy and transported in interstate commerce. Sensitization, eye and skin irritation studies were also made on these chemicals.
