Título Carcinogenesis bioassay of technical grade chlordecone (Kepone).
Información bibliográfica 8 Apr. 1976, Vol.41, No.69, p.14914-14915.
Resumen Chlordecone (Kepone) was administered to rats and mice for 80 weeks beginning with doses that were not well tolerated and decreasing to doses that averaged 8 and 24ppm for male rats, 18 and 26ppm for female rats, 20 and 23ppm for male mice and 20 and 40ppm for female mice. Generalised tremors and dermatologic changes were noted and there was a significant increase in hepatocellular carcinomas of high dose level rats and of mice at both levels. Extensive hyperplasia of the liver was also found.
