| Abstract |
Following intragastric administration of glycidol, a substance used in organic synthesis, LD50 in mice was determined at 431mg/kg. Inhalation LC50 was 1,069mg/m3 for mice, and 1,260mg/m3 for rats. This substance, which was moderately irritant when inhaled or on skin contact, and highly irritant on contact with conjunctival tissue, may be toxic on absorption through intact skin. Recommended TLV: 5mg/m3. |
