Abstract

The research programs of the Toxic Hazards Research Unit (THRU) for the period of June 1978 through May 1979 are reviewed in this report. Chronic toxicity or oncogenic studies were carried out with inhaled methylcyclohexane, tricyclodecane, and purified 1,1-dimethylhydrazine. A subchronic inhalation study was conducted with decalin. Acute oral and intraperitoneal toxicity studies were conducted on a variety of chemical agents used by the Air Force and Navy. Sensitization, eye, and skin irritation studies were also made on these chemicals.
