6. BEGIN File 156 to search ToxFile.

7. EXECUTE the temporary SearchSave to create search sets of all the hits on cumene or its synonyms in ToxFile.

Note that Cumene appears along with the other synonyms and the CAS Registry Number saved with the MAP command.

If the search statement exceeds 240 characters the system will automatically create an additional SELECT statement.  This EXECUTE STEPS created two SELECT statements, plus S3, which ORed S1 and S2 together.

To investigate the sensory irritation induced by two organic solvents - n-octane and cumene - between two groups of volunteers, stingers and non-stingers, identified as such according to the ... ...The volunteers graded the reaction intensities by the use of a labelled magnitude scale.
