Description:
2-Nitropropane is a clear, colorless liquid with a mild, fruity odor, that can cause acute liver damage ([http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16445897|Borges et al., 2006]). The primary routes of potential human exposure to 2-nitropropane are inhalation, ingestion, and skin contact. This pathway is based on the biodegradation carried out by fungal organisms ([http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9501443|Gorlatova et al., 1998]).
