5-Ethylidene-2-norbornene (ENB) is an industrial chemical whose physical properties indicate a likelihood for vapor exposure to humans. The potential for target organ or cumulative toxicity was investigated in rats exposed for 6 h per day for 9 days over an

Several predictive models were used to assess aquatic exposure, persistence (P) and potential for long-range transport (LRT) of 5-ethylidene-2-norbornene (ENB). Such estimations are components of the assessment process for persistent, bioaccumulative and toxic (PBT) substances, which are also referred to
