Abstract
3-Bromopropene (CAS No. 106-95-6) was evaluated for subchronic oral toxicity. The test substance was administered by oral gavage to 10 male rats/group for 14 days at 15 mg/kg or 60 mg/kg. Additional groups were exposed to the control vehicles (water or arachis oil) or the positive control, glycerol-a- monochlorohydrin. At 60 mg/kg, signs of compound-related intoxication included excessive salivation in a small number of animals, severe gastric irritation, reduced body weights, and reduced body weight gains. Exposure caused no morphological changes of the reproductive tract and no significant changes in mean testes weights.
