A review of the recent literature on sources, production, environmental fate, and bioaccumulation has been carried out by SRI on 26 classes of compounds. These included epoxides, haloolefins, aldehydes, alkyl and benzyl halides, peroxides, hydroperoxides and peracids, polyhalomethanes, aromatic amines, polychlorinated biphenyls, azo dyes, carbamic acid esters, hydrazines, acyl halides and ketene, phosphoric acid esters, aziridines, lactones, alkyl sulfates, sulfones, aryl dialkyltriazenes, diazoalkanes, haloalcohols, haloethers, hydroxylamines, nitrosamines, nitrofurans, and azides. |
