Resumen Physical and chemical properties. Toxicity: 30-fold intragastric administration of N-cyanoethylaniline (CEA) at 1/10 of the LD50 (0.47g/kg) to rats resulted in anaemia (reduction of oxyhaemoglobin levels and erythrocyte number) accompanied by reticulocytosis (up to 157.7%), an increase of met- and sulfhaemoglobinlevels, appearance of Heinz bodies (36.9%), a reduction of blood sulfhydryl groups, leucocytosis and a reduction in the relative weight of the spleen. CEA exposure may cause signs of liver functional disturbances. The threshold of acute toxicity for CEA is 9mg/m3 (criterion of methaemoglobin formation). A MAC of 0.1mg/m3 for CEA (aerosol) in workplace air (with the notation "skin", hazard class 2) is recommended. Precautions: protection of respiratory tract, gastrointestinal tract and skin from contact with CEA.
