A 1983 April Fools' Day edition of the "Durand Express", a weekly newspaper in Durand, Michigan, reported that "dihydrogen oxide" had been found in the city's water pipes, and warned that it was fatal if inhaled, and could produce blistering vapors.

Amine oxide 1400 ug L. Chronic toxicity data for fish is 420 ug/L. When normalized to C12.9, the NOEC is 310 ug L for growth and hatchability. Amine oxide An amine oxide, also known as amine-"N"-oxide and "N"-oxide, is a chemical compound that contains the functional group RN−O, an N−O coordinate covalent bond with three additional hydrogen and/or hydrocarbon side chains attached to N. Sometimes it is written as RN→O or, wrongly, as RN=O. In the strict sense, the term "amine oxide" applies only to oxides of tertiary amines. Sometimes it is also used for the analogous derivatives of primary and secondary
