Two-year toxicity and oncogenicity study with acrylonitrile incorporated in the drinking water of rats.

Sprague-Dawley rats (80 per sex per control and 48 per sex in each treatment group) were given drinking water formulated to contain 0, 35, 100, or 300 ppm acrylonitrile (AN) for up to 2-years. An additional ten rats per sex per group were added for a 1-year interim necropsy. The equivalent doses of AN consumed were 0, 3.
