Abstract Exposure of humans to inorganic arsenic has been associated with the development of neoplasms. This has led to the conclusion that arsenic is a carcinogen but this is without substantial experimental evidence. The major criticism of the epidemiological and experimental data is that other chemicals or conditions were often present during these exposures which complicated the interpretation of the data. Researchers have been interested in the concept that arsenic is not a complete carcinogen but would require a promoter carcinogen or is itself a promoter carcinogen. The report presents evidence that the inorganic arsenic, sodium arsenite, appears to be a promoter carcinogen in the kidney for the initiator carcinogen, diethylnitrosamine.
