Abstract
Urine and tissues (brain, liver, kidney, fat and triceps muscles) from rodents (rats, guinea pigs and albino mice) treated with sulphur must ard percutaneously were examined for the presence of sulphur mustard a nd/or metabolites using electron impact direct inlet and GC-mass spect rometry. Sulphur mustard and thiodiglycol sulphoxide were not detected in these samples even after application of massive doses. However, th iodiglycol was identified in urine only.
