Abstract
The Environmental Criteria and Assessment Office, Office of Health and Environmental Assessment has investigated the health and environmental effects for benzoic acid. Several quantitative toxicological estimates are presented that reflect evaluations of the substance's potential effects to human health, aquatic life, and the environment. Environmental fate and transport data are provided for air, soil, and water. Additionally, exposure levels are reported for the substance's presence in water, air, food, and potential dermal contact. Results of pharmacokinetic evaluations and carcinogenicity risk assessments are also provided.
