Thirteen-week inhalation toxicity study of 1-propanol in F344 rats

1-Propanol is a colorless volatile liquid at room temperature and is an important industrial alcohol. Workers are potentially exposed to it through inhalation during industrial activities, including manufacturing, sampling, filling, and mixing processes, as well as during cleaning, maintenance, and...

In this study, 80 (40 male and 40 female) F344 rats were exposed to 1-propanol vapors for 13 weeks (6 h a day, 5 days per week) at target concentrations of 0, 500, 1,600, and 5200 ppm in a whole-body inhalation chamber system. Clinical signs, mean body weight changes, food consumption, hematology, blood biochemistry, necropsy, organ weight, and histopathological findings were observed. The exposure concentrations in chambers were 501.30 ± 9.54 ppm, 1605.43 ± 66.55 ppm, and 5202.19 ± 102.74 ppm for the low, middle, and high dose groups, respectively. No changes related to 1-propanol were observed, including histopathological findings, except for mean body weight changes. The significant decrease in mean body weight at a high dose was not considered to be an adverse effect.
