Title: Testimony presented to the Massachusetts Department of Public Health, March 19, 1984, Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts

Abstract

The testimony relates the witness' experience as Director of the Carcinogenesis Bioassay Program at the National Cancer Institute relating to experiments performed with ethylene dibromide (EDB). NCI conducted carcinogenicity bioassays of EDB in rats and mice by both the oral and inhalation routes of exposure. EDB produced multiple kinds of cancer at multiple body sites, in three strains of rats and two strains of mice, in both sexes, at high incidences, with short latent periods, and by three routes of exposure (oral, inhalation, and skin application). (ACR)
