Abstract

This report is an update of ECETOC Technical Report No.4 (see CIS 84-1084). Contents: haematological and testicular effects; teratological, embryotoxic and foetotoxic effects; neurologic and behavioural effects; genetic toxicity; carcinogenicity; skin absorption; metabolism; human exposure (exposure limits, environmental control, testing of effects on man); discussion; general conclusions. This update covers more of the glycol ethers than does Report No.4. It also includes their acetates.
