TL;DR: The diverse toxic actions and pharmacological effects of pyrethroids suggest that simple additivity models based on combined actions at a single target are not appropriate to assess the risks of cumulative exposure to multiple pyre Throids.

TL;DR: Experimental investigation revealed that the commonly used aerosol propellants, in high concentrations, are capable of sensitizing the heart to epinephrine resulting in serious cardiac arrhythmias, and it is concluded that cardiac sensitization is a likely mechanism of death in many of the aerosol-sniffing fatalities.

TL;DR: Human panelists sensitive to formaldehyde eye irritation were exposed to low concentrations of formaldehyde vapor for 6 minutes and eye irritation was evaluated by time to detection of the first trace of irritation and by subjective ranking of severity.

TL;DR: The Isoparaffins covered in this manuscript are branched aliphatic hydrocarbons with a carbon skeleton length ranging from approximately C10 to C15 that are used in the manufacture of liquid imaging toners, paint formulations, charcoal lighter fluid, furniture polishes and floor cleaners.
