No Significant Risk Levels (nsrls) for the Proposition 65 Carcinogens 3,3'-dimethoxybenzidine and 3,3'-dimethoxybenzidine Dihydrochloride

ثبت نشده
چکیده

The cancer potencies of 3,3'-dimethoxybenzidine dihydrochloride (commonly called odianisidine) and 3,3'-dimethoxybenzidine dihydrochloride were estimated from dose-response data for multiple treatment-responding tumor sites among male rats exposed orally to 3,3'dimethoxybenzidine dihydrochloride via drinking water (NTP, 1990). These sites were skin, Zymbal’s gland, preputial gland, small intestine, large intestine, liver, oral cavity, lung, and brain. For each of the tumor sites listed above, a probability distribution of cancer potency estimates was derived using likelihood theory. The linear term (q1) of the multistage model fit to dose response data for a given site represents the cancer potency for that site. The cancer potencies for the affected sites were summed probabilistically, according to their distributions, to obtain a combined distribution. This combined distribution representing cancer potency for all selected sites affected by 3,3'-dimethoxybenzidine dihydrochloride was derived through Monte Carlo analysis. The upper 95 percent confidence bound indicated by the combined distribution for these treatment-related tumor sites was taken as the cancer potency for 3,3'dimethoxybenzidine dihydrochloride.

The cancer potencies of 3,3'-dimethylbenzidine (commonly called o-tolidine) and 3,3'dimethylbenzidine dihydrochloride were estimated from dose-response data for multiple treatment-responding tumor sites among male rats exposed orally to 3,3'-dimethylbenzidine dihydrochloride via drinking water (NTP, 1991). These sites included liver, lung, preputial gland, oral cavity, skin, small intestines, l...

Bioassay of 3,3'-dimethoxybenzidine-4,4'-diisocyanate for possible carcinogenicity.

A bioassay for the possible carcinogenicity of 3,3'-dimethoxybenzidine-4,4'-diisocyanate was conducted using Fischer 344 rats and B6C3F1 mice. 3,3'-Dimethoxybenzidine-4,4'-diisocyanate was administered, at either of two concentrations, to groups of 50 male and 50 female animals of each species, with the exception of 49 high dose female rats. The compound was administered in the feed with the ex...

using an expedited methodology. The expedited approach represents the first level of a three-tiered risk assessment procedure currently in place for timely and efficient development of cancer potencies and Proposition 65 " no significant risk levels " (NSRLs) and has been shown previously to produce reliable potency values (OEHHA, 1992; Hoover et al., 1995). Values generated using the expedited...
