Information on: formaldehyde
Limited evidence of a carcinogenic effect.
After lifelong inhalation exposure to concentrations that were severely damaging to the nasal
epithelium, nasal tumors were induced in rats; in other species these findings were not found or were
considerably less pronounced.
The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has classified formaldehyde as a Group 1
(known) human carcinogen based on epidemiological evidence linking formaldehyde exposure to
occurrence of nasopharyngeal cancer.
Current regulatory information is provided in this MSDS.
No adverse health effects are anticipated if recommended personal protective equipment and
industrial hygiene practices are used.
