Resumen |
Limited data are available on the toxic effects of morpholine in humans. The substance has an unpleasant fishy odour with an odour threshold of 0.036mg/m3. Experiments on human volunteers indicate that it may cause irritation of the eyes, nose and throat and skin burns. Animal studies show that the target organs are the liver, kidneys an stomach. There are no indications that morpholine itself is carcinogenic, although in the presence of nitrite it may be converted to N-nitrosomorpholine which is known to be mutagenic and carcinogenic in animals. |
