Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Inhalation and injection experiments in rats to test the carcinogenicity of MMMF

Notas: Sumario: In parallel inhalation and intraperitoneal injection (i.p.) experiments with rats, the glass fibre JM 104, Tempstran 475, exemplifying a very thin and durable man-made mineral fibre (MMMF), was compared with crocidolite (South Africa) and chrysotile (California, Calidria RC 144). The long persistence of JM 104/475 in the lung and the carcinogenic effects of these fibres after intraperitoneal injection indicate that after inhalation of thin (< 1 microm), long and durable MMMF the suspicion of a carcinogenic potency of these fibres is still well-foundedRegistros relacionados: En: The Annals of occupational hygiene. - Oxford [etc.]. - nº 4B, 1987 ; p. 755-764Materia / lugar / evento: Higiene industrial Fibras minerales artificiales Man-made mineral fibres Experimentos Medicina laboral Enfermedades pulmonares Vías respiratorias Cáncer Otros autores: Muhle, H.
