| Abstract |
This document describes possible approaches to the testing of fuels and fuel additives for potential health effects. Such health effects testing is required of the manufacturer of a fuel or fuel additive. The health effects tests must include but are not limited to carcinogenic, teratogenic, or mutagenic effects. In order to determine the appropriate protocol for health effects testing, the following areas are discussed: (1) test materials, (2) relationship of physical and chemical properties of test materials to physiological distribution and biological activity, (3) weighing factors involved in determining an approach to appropriate health effects testing, (4) route and mode of exposure. The possible health effects tests described are organized into the following areas: (1) toxicity (with an emphasis on pulmonary effects), (2) mutagenesis, (3) carcinogenesis, (4) teratogenesis and reproductive performance. The final chapter describes two possible approaches to testing. This report is a technical background document and is not intended to serve as a health effects testing protocol for fuels and fuel additives. |
