| Abstract |
The paper summarizes toxicological research conducted with chlorine dioxide and with chlorinated humic acids. Chlorine dioxide exposure decreases serum thyroxide levels in monkeys by possibly altering the uptake, distribution and excretion of iodine which is utilized for thyroxine synthesis. A 90-day subchronic study was conducted with chlorinated and non-chlorinated humic acids with rats. The most significant finding was the increased incidence and severity of hematuria in the chlorinated humic acid group (1.0 g/1 chlorinated humic acid). |
