A simple generator for methyl bromide gas has been newly developed by us. For inhalation toxicity studies, until now, there have been few generators capable of producing a constant and stable concentration of methyl bromide gas easily because of its high volatility. The principle of this new generator is based on gas-liquid equilibrium. The gas is generated from the surface of liquid methyl bromide in an evaporator made of a Teflon tube. The generator can produce up to 10,000 ppm of methyl bromide gas in a 0.1 m3 exposure chamber, and the concentration of this generated gas is able to be kept within +/- 0.8% over a long period of time. The generator has proved to be useful for investigating the effects of methyl bromide on health in inhalation toxicity studies.
