Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:YES IARC:YES OSHA:YES
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:CARCINOGENIC: ACRYLAMIDE IS A PROBABLE
HUMAN CARCINOGEN AND A HUMAN NEUROTOXIN. ANOTHER MINOR COMPONENT
HAS BEEN SHOWN TO CAUSE CANCER IN LABORATORY ANIMALS AND IS ALSO
NEUROTOXIC. MAY BE IRRITATING T O EYES, SKIN AND RESPIRATORY TRACT.
EXPOSURE TO FORMALDEHYDE MAY PRODUCE ALLERGIC RESPIRATORY EFFECTS
IN SENSITIZED INDIVIDUALS, INCLUDING ASTHMA, COUGHING, WHEEZING,
SHORTNESS OF BREATH. FORMALDEHYDE IS ALSO CONSIDERED A PROBABLE
HUMAN CARCINOGEN.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:ACRYLAMIDE: IARC MONO, SUPP, VOL 7, PG
56, 1998: GROUP 2B. NTP 8TH ANNUAL RPT ON CARCINS, 1998: REASONABLY
ANTIC TO BE HUMAN CARCIN. ANIMAL: CNS TOXIN, NEOPLASMS.
FORMALDEHYDE: IARC MONO, SUPP, VOL 62 , PG 217, 1998: GROUP 2A. NTP
