Abstract

Preliminary assessment of the relative toxicity of Mononitroso-RDX was conducted to acquire information concerning the relative irritant and sensitization potential of this compound in animals. Mononitroso-RDX, following single application to rabbits, showed no potential for causing irritation to eyes or skin and in guinea pigs did not prove to be a senistizer.
