Groups of guinea pigs were exposed via inhalation to toluene diisocyanate (TDI) ranging from 0.02 to 1.0 ppm for 3 h/day on 5 consecutive days. Three weeks later, guinea pigs were challenged with TDI-GSA conjugates. Evaluations were based on TDI

During our ongoing studies of the reactions of toluene diisocyanate (2,4- and 2,6-diisocyanatotoluene, TDI) in vivo, it became apparent that reactive form(s) of these diisocyanates reach(es) the circulatory system after passage through the respiratory system. Based on recent work by
Diisocyanates are highly reactive chemical compounds widely used in the manufacture of polyurethanes. Although diisocyanates have been identified as causative agents of allergic respiratory diseases, the specific mechanism by which these diseases occur is largely unknown. To better understand the

Toluene diisocyanates (TDI) are commonly used in polyurethane (PU)-related products. TDIs have been documented as the leading cause of occupational asthma. Skin exposure to TDI in the workplace is common. However, no studies in the literature have investigated the exact
Desalted plasma from a 2,4- and 2,6-toluene diisocyanate (2,4- and 2,6-TDI) exposed worker at a factory producing flexible polyurethane foam was separated and fractionated into 200 fractions using ion-exchange chromatography followed by a gel-filtration separation and fractionation into 59 fractions.
Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
