Their use patterns are the same and they all show the same pattern of toxicity in rats and mice (e.g. haematotoxicity). Therefore, this CICAD focuses on the risk assessment of 4-chloroaniline as the most toxic of the chlorinated anilines. .../...

Thiourea is a white crystalline solid and has a wide range of uses, including production of textiles and production of pharmaceuticals and pesticides. Although thiourea has been shown to be a carcinogen in rats, the weight of evidence suggests that rodents are more sensitive than humans to thyroid tumour.
