The toxicity of methyl methacrylate vapors was tested using a mouse model. Mice were exposed for prolonged periods (2 hr twice daily for 10 days) to high doses (1,500 ppm) under atmospheric oxygen and carbon dioxide concentrations. Histologic examination of the lungs, liver, heart, and kidney showed no evidence of damage.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
