Trichloroethylene vapours do not produce dominant lethal mutations in male mice

Exposure of male mice to trichloroethylene vapours during 24 h at levels or 50, 202 and 450 ppm did not reveal mutagenic effects in the dominant lethal assay. The following parameters were registered and evaluated: Fertilization rate, post-implantation loss, preemplantation loss and dominant lethal mutations.
