Strain A/J mice were exposed by inhalation for 6 h/d, 5 d/wk, for 6 mo to carbon disulfide, 1,2-dibromoethane, ethylene oxide, naphthalene, nitrogen dioxide, or vinyl chloride. Significant increases in pulmonary adenoma formation were observed following exposure to 300 ppm carbon disulfide; 20 and 50 ppm 1,2-dibromoethane; 70 and 200 ppm ethylene oxide; 10 ppm nitrogen dioxide; and 50, 200, and 500 ppm vinyl chloride compared to control animals. Repeated studies with 1,2-dibromoethane, ethylene oxide, and vinyl chloride gave similarly significant results. Exposure of mice to 30 ppm naphthalene did not elicit a significant adenoma response. Histopathological examination of lungs from animals in these studies revealed multiple alveolar adenomas. Results from earlier studies with these chemicals, using strain A mice and Swiss mice, and bioassay information with rats and mice were compared with these data. These results provide further information for the validation of this in vivo model as a tool for predicting oncogenic potential following chemical exposure.
