Evaluation of the potential carcinogenicity of dimethylcarbamoyl chlo. Final report

Technical Report · Wed Jun 01 04:00:00 EDT 1988

OSTI ID:6373653

Dimethylcarbamoyl Chloride is a probable human carcinogen, classified as weight-of-evidence Group B2 under the EPA Guidelines for Carcinogen Risk Assessment (U.S. EPA, 1986a). Evidence on potential carcinogenicity from animal studies is Sufficient, and the evidence from human studies is Inadequate. The potency factor (F) for dimethylcarbamoyl chloride is estimated to be 505 (mg/kg/day), placing it in potency group 1 according to the CAG's methodology for evaluating potential carcinogens (U.S. EPA, 1986b). Combining the weight-of-evidence group and the potency group, dimethylcarbamoyl chloride is assigned a HIGH hazard ranking for the purposes of RQ adjustment.
