Carcinogenicity and toxicity tests on p-phenylenediamine in F344 rats. 1983

K Imaida, and Y Ishihara, and O Nishio, and K Nakanishi, and N Ito

p-Phenylenediamine, an intermediate of oxidative-type hair dyes, was administered to groups of male and female F344 rats in their diet. A subacute toxicity test showed that 0.4% p-phenylenediamine was very toxic to both sexes, but that 0.2, 0.1 and 0.05% p-phenylenediamine induced no remarkable toxic changes in either sex. In a chronic toxicity test 0.1 and 0.05% p-phenylenediamine were given to both sexes in their diet for 80 weeks, but no carcinogenic effects were found in either sex.

D009929 Organ Size The measurement of an organ in volume, mass, or heaviness. Organ Volume,Organ Weight,Size, Organ,Weight, Organ
D010084 Oxidation-Reduction A chemical reaction in which an electron is transferred from one molecule to another. The electron-donating molecule is the reducing agent or reductant; the electron-accepting molecule is the oxidizing agent or oxidant. Reducing and oxidizing agents function as conjugate reductant-oxidant pairs or redox pairs (Lehninger, Principles of Biochemistry, 1982, p471). Redox,Oxidation Reduction
D010655 Phenylenediamines Aniline compounds that contain two amino groups. They are used as a precursor in the synthesis of HETEROCYCLIC COMPOUNDS and POLYMERS. p-Phenylenediamine is used in the manufacture of HAIR DYES and is an ALLERGEN.
