Teratology study in mice subjected to inhalation of diethylhydroxylamine, nitroethane, and diethylamine hydrogen sulfite.

Pregnant female mice were exposed from Days 6 to 17 of pregnancy to 8.9 +/- 2.0 ppm of diethylhydroxylamine and 14.3 +/- 2.0 ppm of nitroethane. Exposures were for 8.25 +/- 2.25 hours/day including weekends. The mice were also exposed continuously for 24 hours a day to the vapor of diethylamine hydrogen sulfite. The exposure produced no effect on the dams compared to the control group. There was no evidence of compound-induced terata, variation in sex ratio, embryotoxicity, or inhibition of fetal growth and development.
