- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EPA OPPTS 870.7800
- Deviations:
- not specified
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- The study met the requirements of EPA’s guidelines for inhalation toxicity (EPA OPPTS 870.3465) and immunotoxicity screening (EPA OPPTS 870.7800).

Test material
- Reference substance name:
- Baseline gasoline vapor condensate
- IUPAC Name:
- Baseline gasoline vapor condensate
- Details on test material:
- - Name of test material (as cited in study report): Baseline gasoline vapor condensate (BGVC)
- Composition of test material, percentage of components: see below "Any other information on materials and methods incl. tables", Tables 1 and 2
- Other: Test substance is closely related to 'Naphtha (Fischer-Tropsch), light, C4-10 - branched and linear', but it contains a higher level of aromatics, olefins and cycloparaffins. It can be assumed that the level of toxicity of 'Naphtha (Fischer-Tropsch), light, C4-10 - branched and linear', mainly consisting of branched and linear hydrocarbons is, however, considerably less (or at least the same) than that seen with the test material.

Results and discussion
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Exposure to the closely related test material ‘Baseline gasoline vapor condensate' (BGVC) did not result in significant changes in the IgM AFC response to sRBC, when evaluated as either specific activity (AFC/106 spleen cells) or as total spleen activity (AFC/spleen).
- Executive summary:
Female Sprague Dawley rats were exposed via inhalation to vapor condensates of either gasoline or gasoline combined with various fuel oxygenates to assess potential immunotoxicity of evaporative emissions. Test articles included vapor condensates prepared from ‘‘baseline gasoline’’ (BGVC), or gasoline combined with methyl tertiary butyl ether (G/MTBE), ethyl t-butyl ether (G/ETBE), t-amyl methyl ether (G/TAME), diisopropyl ether (G/DIPE), ethanol (G/EtOH), or t-butyl alcohol (G/TBA). Target concentrations were 0, 2000, 10,000 or 20,000 mg/mg3 administered for 6 h/day, 5 days/week for 4 weeks. The antibody-forming cell (AFC) response to the T-dependent antigen, sheep erythrocyte (sRBC), was used to determine the effects of the gasoline vapor condensates on the humoral components of the immune system.
Exposure to the closely related test material ‘Baseline gasoline vapor condensate' (BGVC), G/MTBE, G/TAME, and G/TBA did not result in significant changes in the IgM AFC response to sRBC, when evaluated as either specific activity (AFC/106 spleen cells) or as total spleen activity (AFC/spleen).
Exposure to G/EtOH and G/DIPE resulted in a dose-dependent decrease in the AFC response, reaching the level of statistical significance only at the high 20,000 mg/m3 level. Exposure to G/ETBE resulted in a statistically significant decrease in the AFC response at the middle (10,000 mg/m3) and high (20,000 mg/m3) exposure concentrations.
