Resumen The acute toxicity of 8 primary aliphatic alcohols amyl, hexyl, isooctyl, 2-ethylhexyl, isononyl, decyl, tridecyl and hexadecyl) containing 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 13 and 16 carbon atoms was investigated in the rat. The tests included oral and percutaneous LD50, eye and skin irritation and 6-h vapour exposure. The results are presented in tabular form and discussed. Eye irritation was rather severe with most alcohols, but inhalation toxicity was low. Systematic effects were noted with amyl, 2-ethylhexyl and isononyl alcohols.
