11. TOXICOLOGY INFORMATION
11.1. Distillates (petroleum), hydrotreated light
11.1.1. ORAL (LD50): Acute: >5000 mg/kg [Rat].
11.1.2. DERMAL (LD50): Acute: >2000 mg/kg [Rabbit].
11.1.2.1. Studies on laboratory animals have associated similar materials with eye and respiratory tract
irritation. Repeated exposure to elevated concentrations of hydrocarbon solvents can produce a
variety of transient CNS effects (e.g., dizziness, headache, narcosis, etc). Studies on laboratory
animals have shown similar materials to cause skin irritation after repeated or prolonged contact.
Repeated direct application of similar materials to the skin can produce defatting dermatitis and
kidney damage in laboratory animals. The most common effects obse
rved in repeated dose animal
studies with mineral spirits are kidney changes that are consistent with an alpha 2u-globulin-
mediated process that is not regarded as relevant to humans. Certain studies have reported effects
in the liver as well as hematological or urine chemistry changes. In general, these effects have not to
been shown to be dose-related.
11.2. Highly-refined petroleum lubricant oils:
11.2.1. ORAL (LD50): Acute: >5000 mg/kg [Rat].
11.2.2. DERMAL (LD50): Acute: >2000 mg/kg [Rabbit].
11.2.2.1. Mineral oil mists derived from highly refined oils are reported to have low acute and sub-acute
toxicities in animals. Effects from single and short-term repeated exposures to high concentrations of
mineral oil mists well above applicable workplace exposure levels include lung inflammatory
reaction, lipoid granuloma formation and lipoid pneumonia. In acute and sub-acute studies involving
exposures to lower concentrations of mineral oil mists at or near current work place exposure levels
produced no significant toxicological effects. In long term studies (up to two years) no carcinogenic
effects have been reported in any animal species tested.
