| Abstract |
Because of fluctuations in levels of industrial air pollution linked to weather and other factors, a joint U.S.-Soviet research team studied differences in the effect of time in exposures of air-breathing animals to controlled varied concentrations of air pollutants. An experimental model environment was used to investigate the effects of nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), and benzene (C6H6) in the air environment of laboratory animals, with both continuous and intermittent exposures. Part II concerns the toxicities of intermittent exposures to C6H6 and NO2; three parameters were used. The toxic effects of NO2 with intermittent exposure were not reduced as was the case with C6H6. Data are presented to show that intermittent exposure to NO2 may be more toxic than continuous exposure when short-term peaks of NO2 concentrations are involved. |
