Abstract

Recent studies have demonstrated that acute exposure of male rats to volatile hydrocarbons induces a renal toxicity. Chronic exposure of male rats to a few of the volatile hydrocarbons resulted in an increased incidence of renal adenomas and carcinomas. These effects have not been observed in female rats or any other species of experimental animals exposed to these volatile hydrocarbons.
