Mortality study of workers employed at a plant manufacturing chemicals for the rubber industry : 1955-86 / Tom Sorahan, Debbie Pope
Sumario: A chronic gavage study on rats and mice carried out by the US National Program found that 2-mercaptobenxothiazole (MBT) produced some evidence of carcinogenic activity in male and female rats.
