| Abstract |
Conclusions of this criteria document, translation of a report finalized in October 1993: 2,4-, 2,5- and 3,4-dichloroaniline may be absorbed through the skin. They are methaemoglobin-forming agents; acute poisoning in humans is manifested by hypoxia, fatigue, difficult breathing and muscular weakness. Early cases of chloracne in workers exposed to industrial 3,4-dichloroaniline were attributed to contamination with 3,3',4,4'-tetrachloroazobenzene or 3,3',4,4'-tetrachloroazoxybenzene. No data are available on carcinogenicity. |
