CARCINOGENICITY:All <br /> materials tested have caused the development of skin tumors in mice, but all featured severe skin irritation and <br /> sometimes a long latency period before tumors developed. Straight-run and cracked gas oil samples were studied <br /> L to determine the influence of dermal irritation on the carcinogenic activity of middle distillates. At non-irritant doses <br /> the straight-run gas oil was not carcinogenic, but at irritant doses,weak activity was demonstrated. Cracked gas <br /> oils, when diluted with mineral oil, demonstrated carcinogenic activity irrespective of the occurrence of skin <br /> irritation. Gas oils were tested on male mice to study tumor initiating/promoting activity. The results demonstrated <br /> C! that while a straight-run gas oil sample was neither an initiator or promotor, a blend of straight-run and FCC stock <br /> was both a tumor initiator and a promoter. <br /> GENOTOXICITY: Hydrotreated & hydrodesulfurized gas oils range in activity from inactive to weakly positive in <br /> in-vitro bacterial mutagenicity assays. Mouse lymphoma assays on straight-run gas oils without subsequent <br /> hydrodesuiphurization gave positive results in the presence of S9 metabolic activation. In-vivo bone marrow <br /> cytogenetics and sister chromatic exchange assay exhibited no activity for straight-run components with or <br /> without hydrodesulphurization. Thermally.or catalytically cracked gas oils tested with in-vitro bacterial <br /> mutagenicity assays in the presence of S9 metabolic activation were shown to be mutagenic. In-vitro sister <br /> chromatic exchange assays on cracked gas oil gave equivocal results both with and without S9 metabolic <br /> activation. In-vivo bone marrow cytogenetics assay was inactive for two cracked gas oil samples. Three <br /> hydrocracked gas oils were tested with in-vitro bacterial mutagenicity assays with S9, and one of the three gave <br /> positive results. Twelve distillate fuel samples were tested with in-vitro bacterial mutagenicity assays &with S9 <br /> metabolic activation and showed negative to weakly positive results. In one series, activity was shown to be <br /> related to the PCA content of samples tested. Two in-vivo studies were also conducted. A mouse dominant lethal <br /> ' assay was negative for a sample of diesel fuel. In the other study, 9 samples of No 2 heating oil containing 50% <br /> cracked stocks caused a slight increase in the number.of chromosomal aberrations in bone marrow cytogenetics <br /> assays. DEVELOPMENTAL TOXICITY: Diesel fuel vapor did not cause fetotoxic or teratogenic effects when <br /> pregnant rats were exposed on days 6-15 of pregnancy. Gas oils were applied to the skin of pregnant rats daily <br /> on days 0-19 of gestation. All but one (coker light gas oil) caused fetotoxicity (increased resorptions, reduced litter <br /> weight, reduced litter size) at dose levels that were also maternally toxic. <br /> ti This product may contain significant amounts of Polynuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH's)which have been <br /> shown to Cause skin cancer after prolonged and frequent contact with the skin of test animals.
