Overexposure to this material (or its components) has been suggested as a cause of the following effects in laboratory animals: nervous system effects, blood abnormalities, kidney damage, liver damage, heart damage and lung damage. Overexposure to this material (or its components) has been suggested as a cause of the following effects in humans: central nervous system effects. Carcinogenicity Human studies have associated nasopharyngeal cancers (area of the upper throat behind the nose) and possibly other respiratory cancers (nasal cavity and sinuses) with formaldehyde exposure in the workplace. Although the evidence is not conclusive, some studies suggest an association between workplace formaldehyde exposure and leukemia. In studies in rats, inhalation of formaldehyde has caused nasal tumors, while ingestion in drinking water has caused leukemia and gastrointestinal tract tumors. Formaldehyde is listed as a carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), the National Toxicology Program (NTP) and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). Reproductive hazard This material (or a component) may be harmful to the human fetus based on positive test results Part Number(s): 10-4302-B with laboratory animals.

Further information

Formaldehyde has been positive in tests which measure permanent changes to the DNA in germ cells of mammals. Changes in these cells can be passed on to future generations. The relevance of this finding to human health is uncertain. 3.
