Glycol alkyl ethers represent a class of high-production-volume chemicals with widespread industrial applications as solvents and chemical intermediates. Comparative toxicity studies with three glycol ethers, 2-methoxyethanol, 2-ethoxyethanol, and 2-butoxyethanol, were conducted in F344/N rats and B6C3F1 mice in both 2-week and 13-week drinking water studies. Toxicologic endpoints evaluated in animals included histopathology, hematology, clinical chemistry, urinalysis, and reproductive system parameters. Genetic toxicity was also evaluated for each glycol ether in several in vitro and in vivo assays.
