In adult female Wistar rats, pretreated by gavage with two doses - 16 or 256 mumol/kg - of cyanamide, TMTD (tetramethylthiuram disulfide), TMTM (tetramethylthiuram monosulfide), Ziram or Zineb at 90 min or 18 h before administration of 2 g of
An estimate of amounts of thiurams that may be released from rubber gloves into synthetic sweat, has previously been generated. These amounts should be compared to elicitation thresholds of patch tests performed with serial dilutions of thiuram mix using synthetic
To examine the validity of a modified lymphocyte transformation test for evaluating contact hypersensitivity from weak sensitizers, guinea pigs were sensitized with formaldehyde (F) or tetramethylthiuram monosulfide (TMTM) using the maximization test procedure. Lymph node cells from the animals were
In recent years data have accumulated regarding genotoxic properties of dithiocarbamic acid derivatives. The results from the present work indicate that the mutagenicity of these compounds depends on an indirect effect via oxygen radicals. Mutagenicity of tetramethylthiuram disulfide ( TMTD
