Información bibliográfica 1982, Vol.24, No.4, p.373-378. Illus. 35 ref.
Resumen 20% tetrahydrofuran (THF) in various doses was given intraperitoneally and by inhalation to rats and mice. The intraperitoneal LD50 was 1,900-2,900mg/kg according to the solvent and animal used. LC50 was 21,000ppm when inhaled for 3h by rats. There were no significant effects of 100-200ppm THF for 3h in rats except for slight local irritant symptoms. Irritant and central nervous system symptoms occurred with inhalation of 5,000ppm THF.
