Summary Male Syrian golden hamsters inhaled 0.5–1 ppm (=2.7–5.5 mg/m3) of N-nitroso-N-acetoxymethyl-N-methylamine 1 h/week, for 14 weeks. The total dose per animal was calculated as 150–400 μg or 1–3 mg/kg. Four squamous cell carcinomas and one mucoepidermoid carcinoma of the nasal mucosa were observed. No such tumors occurred in the control group.
