AbstractBackground: An increase more than definite limit in sound pressure level is harmful for health, mean while, organic solvents like toluene are used in industrial processes with noise widely. So, this study was going to investigate the relationship between toluene (1000 ppm), noise and toluene along with noise (frequencies 4000 and 8000 Hz) per auditory Brain Stem response (ABR) on rabbits being exposed to these contaminants. Materials and Methods: This survey was done in experimental method on 48 three months old, male adult white New Zealand rabbits (1800±200 g body weight), in nine groups which were exposed to toluene(1000 ppm), noise (4000Hz), 100 dB SPL, combination of toluene and noise (4000Hz), noise (8000Hz) and combination toluene and noise (8000Hz). ABR test measurement was conducted using click and tone burst stimuli in 110dB sound pressure level. Then the results of ABR test of groups exposed were analyzed by SPSS software. One-way variance (ANOVA) analysis was used to compare the groups and Tukey test was applied as a post hoc test for comparison among the groups. P values were obtained by Tukey test. t-test was conducted for comparison of ABR test results after and before exposing groups. Differences at the level of Pen
