    TLDR High levels of phenyl glycidyl ether vapor caused hair loss in rats.
    The study conducted by Ki P. Lee and colleagues at the Haskell Laboratory for Toxicology and Industrial Medicine investigated the effects of inhalation exposure to phenyl glycidyl ether on alopecia. The research found that exposure to this chemical compound led to hair loss in the subjects studied. The findings suggested that phenyl glycidyl ether had a toxic effect on hair follicles, resulting in alopecia. This study contributed to the understanding of occupational hazards associated with chemical exposure and highlighted the need for safety measures to prevent hair loss and other health issues in industrial settings.
