Abstract |
Dinoseb induces symptoms including diarrhoea, pyrexia, dyspnoea, hyperthermia, convulsions, jaundice and disturbances of liver function; outcome may be fatal. Animal experiments show toxicity upon acute oral and dermal exposure. The substance is highly toxic upon inhalation exposure. There are no indications of mutagenic activity. Impairment of fertility has been observed in male rats and embryotoxic effects in rabbits. |
