Administration / exposure

Route of administration:
inhalation
Type of inhalation exposure:
not specified
Vehicle:
air
Details on inhalation exposure:
The animals were exposed to the test material in a specially constructed, all plexiglas inhalation chamber which has a capacity of 355 cubic liters. Each animal was placed in a separate wire cage during exposure to prevent filtration of inspired air by animal fur. The test material(s) are generated into the test chamber atmosphere by various methods depending upon the nature of the test material. The average nominal sample concentration is calculated by dividing the total amount of test material used by the total volume of the chamber. The chamber is equipped with blowers so that after the test sample was introduced into the chamber's atmosphere the air was continually recirculated during the test period.
Analytical verification of test atmosphere concentrations:
