status update: We are reporting nasal and lung pathology results from A Combined Inhalation Chronic Toxicity and 24-Month Carcinogenicity Study of Methyl Isothiocyanate (MITC) in Rats. A Pathology Peer Review was conducted by Experimental Pathology Laboratory, LLC for the respiratory tract findings in the study described herein. The final incidence data for the nasal and lung findings are not yet available as a result of this Peer Review, and, therefore, there are no tabular data to provide at this time. We have been informed of the preliminary results of the Peer Review, which are being reported herein.
