Toxicological Information:CARCINOGENIC DATA: THIS PRODUCT CONTAINS
SILICON DIOXIDE/SILICA. THE INTERNATIONAL AGENCY FOR RESEARCH ON
CANCER CONCLUDED THERE WAS "SUFFICIENT EVIDENCE IN HUMANS FOR
CARCINOGENICITY OF CRYSTALINE SI LICA IN THE FORMS OF QUARTZ OR
CRYSTOBALITE FROM OCCUPATIONAL SOURCES." THE OVERALL IARC
EVALUATION WAS THAT "CRYSTALLINE SILICA INHALED IN THE FORM OF
QUARTZ OR CRYSTABALITE FROM OCCUPATIONAL SOURCE S IS CARCINOGENIC
TO HUMANS (GROUP 1). NTP HAS CONCLUDED THAT "SILICA, CRYSTALLINE
