[In Vitro]

The rank order of HAL cytotoxicity is tribromoacetaldehyde (TBAL)≈chloroacetaldehyde (CAL)>dibromoacetaldehyde (DBAL)≈bromochloroacetaldehyde (BCAL)≈ dibromochloroacetaldehyde (DBCAL)>IAL>bromoacetaldehyde (BAL)≈ bromodichloroacetaldehyde (BDCAL)>dichloroacetaldehyde (DCAL)> trichloroacetaldehyde (TCAL). The HALs were highly cytotoxic compared to other DBP chemical classes. The rank order of HAL genotoxicity is DBAL>CAL≈DBCAL>TBAL≈BAL>BDCAL>BCAL≈DCAL>IAL[1].
