### 3 28 EPA NIOSH NTP OSHA Possible

2-Butoxyethanol [synonym: ethylene glycol monobutyl ether (EGBE)] is a component ofthis product. EGBE has no tendencyto accumulate in humans oranimals (Clayton & Clayton, 1994). Little is known aboutthe potential long-term or delayed effects oflow-level chronic EGBE exposure. In mice, treatment with doses of500 or 1,000 mg/kg/dayfor 4 days induced atrophy ofthe thymus and lymphocytopenia, indicative ofpotential depression ofthe immune system. Hemolytic anemia was also produced (Grant etal, 1985).

# 1~----~1~c~·~-~--------------------------~ 11 . Toxicological information Anemia was also produced in rats. Reproductive studies in laboratory animals have produced mixed results. Chronic inhalation has produced tumors in laboratory animals [National Toxicology Program (2000) Report NTP TR484 and NIH Publication No. 00-3974]. In vitro mutagenicity has been demonstrated in human lymphocytes [Vallalobos-Pietnini, R. et al (1989) Revista lnternacionial de Contaminaci on Ambiental 5: 41-48]. 2-Butoxyethanol expressed positive in vitro mutagenic results in Salmonella typhimurium TA 97a, with and without metabolic activation [Hoflack, J.C. et al (1995) Mutation Research 341: 281-287]. Chronic ingestion and inhalation has produced fetotoxicity and postnatal developmental toxicity in laboratory animals [Heindel, J.J. et al (1990) Fundmental Applied Toxicology 15: No.4 683-696 and Tyl, R. et al (1984) Environmental Health Persp. 57: 47-68]. ACGIH has classified 2-butoxyethanol as an animal carcinogen with unknown relevance to humans. 4) Naphthalene This product contains naphthalene. A National Toxicology Program (NTP) report concluded there is clear evidence to support carcinogenicity ofnaphthalene in male and female rats. These observations were based on 2-year inhalation studies in which the test animals were exposed to 10, 30, and 60 ppm naphthalene. In male and female rats, exposure to naphthalene caused significant increases in the incidence of nonneoplastic lesions ofthe nose (NTP TR-500). The relevance ofthe rodent findings to humans is questionable. Naphthalene has caused hemolytic anemia, jaundice, cataracts (Shopp etal, 1984), allergic reactions (Tsyrkunov & Yakovleva, 1985), possible neurotoxicity (Riala et al, 1984), and aplastic anemia (Harden & Baetjer, 1978) in humans. Increased lung aveolar adenomas were seen in mice exposed to 30 ppm naphthalene for6hrs/dayfor6 months (ACGIH, 1992). Naphthalene crosses the placenta leading to methemoglobinemia (decreased abilityfor the blood to carry oxygen), and/or hemolytic anemia, conditions considered especially dangerous to the unborn (Reprotext). Liver and kidney damage has also been seen with exposure to naphthalene (Reprotext). Peripheral lens opacities occurred in 8 of21 workers exposed to high levels of naphthalene fumes orvapors for 5years, but cataracts have not been reported in other occupational studies. (Hathaway etal, 1991). The InternationalAgencyfor Research on Cancer (IARC) evaluated naphthalene and concluded that there was sufficient evidence for carcinogenicity in experimental animals, but inadequate evidence that it causes cancer in exposed humans. Accordingly, IARC classified naphthalene as a possible human carcinogen (Group 28).
