Glycol ethers are solvents widely used alone and as mixtures in industrial and household products. Some glycol ethers have been shown to have a range of toxic effects in humans following absorption and metabolism to their aldehyde and acid metabolites.

Percutaneous absorption and cutaneous metabolism of 2-ethoxyethanol were assessed in vivo and with an in vitro flow-through diffusion system. Topical application of undiluted (14)C-ethoxyethanol to occluded rat skin in vivo resulted in 25% of the dose being absorbed after 24

Currently, no standardized and well-validated alternative models exist for screening for progesterone-responsive endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs). Because of this, a rapid assay for evaluating progestin/antiprogestin activity using Xenopus oocyte germinal vesicle breakdown (GVBD) as a model was evaluated. Five compounds
