Abstract | Benz(c)acridine is a possible human carcinogen, classified as weight-of-evidence Group C under the EPA Guidelines for Carcinogen Risk Assessment. Evidence on potential carcinogenicity from animal studies is 'Limited,' and the evidence from human studies is 'No Data.' Data available are inadequate for calculating a potency factor and no quantitative inferences can be made. Hence, benz(c)acridine is assigned to potency group 2, the mid-range potency group. Combining the weight-of-evidence group and the potency group, benz(c)acridine is assigned a 'LOW' hazard ranking for the purposes of RQ adjustment. |
