    AbstractThe low solubility and high stability of the new volatile anesthetic, I-653, suggest that this agent should have little or no toxic effect. This hypothesis was tested using repeated exposures to I-653, to isoflurane, or to no anesthetic. For 2 consecutive weeks, groups of 16 rats each were subjected to a total of six 2-hr exposures to 100% oxygen and 1.6 MAC I-653, isoflurane, or no anesthetic. Twenty-four hours after the last exposure, the rats were killed by administration of 100% carbon dioxide and then autopsied. Specimens were taken from brain, pituitary, lung, heart, duodenum, pancreas, kidney, and liver. No tissue damage attributable to either anesthetic was found nor was weight gain affected.
