Evaluation of the potential carcinogenicity of dimethylaminoazobenzene. Final report

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

OSTI ID:6373697

Dimethylaminoazobenzene is a probable human carcinogen, classified as weight-of-evidence Group B2 under the EPA Guidelines for Carcinogen Risk Assessment. Evidence on potential carcinogenicity from animal studies is Sufficient, and the evidence from human studies is No Data. Data available are inadequate for calculating a potency factor (F) and no quantitative inferences can be made. Dimethylaminoazobenzene is, therefore, assigned to the median potency factor range and placed in potency group 2 under the CAG's methodology for evaluating potential carcinogens. Combining the weight-of-evidence group and the potency group, dimethylaminoazobenzene is assigned a MEDIUM hazard ranking.
