Biochemical and cytological studies of rat lung after inhalation of methanol vapour. 1983

L R White, and A B Marthinsen, and R J Richards, and K B Eik-Nes, and O G Nilsen

Rats were examined for changes at the lung surface and in lung tissue after inhalation of methanol vapour for up to 6 weeks at doses of up to 10 000 ppm. No significant changes were found in any of the parameters measured. Methanol vapour therefore does not appear to exert appreciable toxicity at these exposure levels towards rat lung.

D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).

D000432 Methanol A colorless, flammable liquid used in the manufacture of FORMALDEHYDE and ACETIC ACID, in chemical synthesis, antifreeze, and as a solvent. Ingestion of methanol is toxic and may cause blindness. Alcohol, Methyl,Carbinol,Sodium Methoxide,Wood Alcohol,Alcohol, Wood,Methoxide, Sodium,Methyl Alcohol
