Abstract | The weight-of-evidence for diethylarsine is Group D under the EPA Guidelines for Carcinogen Risk Assessment. Evidence on the potential carcinogenicity for diethylarsine from animal studies is 'No Data', and the evidence from human studies is 'No Data'. Organic arsenic compounds such as diethylarsine are considered to be chemically different from the inorganic arsenic compounds, and are, therefore, assessed for carcinogenicity separately from the inorganic compounds. Since there are no data implicating organic arsenic compounds, the carcinogenicity is indeterminant at this time. The lack of human and animal studies prevent the calculation of a potency factor (F), the assignment of a potency group and the assignment of a hazard ranking at this time. |
