Toxicity

ExcerptReferenceRelevance
"1 0)undeca-1,6-diene, a stable bridge-head diene analog of sym-oxepin oxide, were toxic but not mutagenic in both assays."( Structure-activity relationships in the mutagenicity and cytotoxicity of putative metabolites and related analogs of benzene derived from the valence tautomers benzene oxide and oxepin.

Dosage Studied

We used adducts of hemoglobin (Hb) and bone marrow proteins to study the disposition of three benzene and metabolites. The production of BO has never been unambiguously confirmed in animals dosed with benzene.
