Adult male rats were exposed to toluene in short-term exposure by inhalation for 48 h (2000 ppm, continuously), and in long-term inhalation for 3 months (1000 ppm, 8 h daily). The formaldehyde-induced fluorescence (FIF) technique for histochemical demonstration of catecholamines (CA) was used to detect changes in the catecholamine stores. The concentration of CA in the sympathetic neurons of superior cervical ganglia and adrenal medulla was measured by the FIF technique combined with microfluorimetry. The short-term toluene exposure induced a statistically significant reduction of CA contents in sympathetic neurons. After long-term exposure, no change in the CA level could be demonstrated either in sympathetic ganglion or adrenal medulla. In electron microscopic studies no clear pathological changes were detected after toluene exposure.
