Naphthalene(CAS 91-20-? 213 Possibly carcinoc to humans. RECEIVED <br /> US NTP Report on CarcinogebwAnticipated carcinogen -./ <br /> Naphthalene(CAS 91-20-3) Reasonably Anticipated to be a Human CarcincQ&l �, 1 20113 <br /> Epidemiology Studies have shown a risk of spontaneous abortions in women exposed to high concentrations of <br /> organic solvents during pregnancy. Pre-existing skin conditions includinEWROMMKTAL <br /> aggravated by exposure to this product. HEALTH DEPARTMENT <br /> Mutagenicity No component of this product present at levels greater than or equal to 0.1%is identified as a <br /> mutagen by OSHA. <br /> Neurological effects Chronic exposure to high concentrations of various hydrocarbon blends may lead to <br /> polyneuropathy(peripheral nerve damage), characterized by progressive weakness and <br /> numbness in the extremities, loss of deep tendon reflexes and reduction of motor nerve <br /> conduction velocity. Numerous cases of polyneuritis have been reported following prolonged <br /> exposures to a petroleum fraction containing various isomers of heptane as major ingredients. <br /> May cause central nervous system disorder(e.g., narcosis involving a loss of coordination, <br /> weakness,fatigue)and/or damage. <br /> Reproductive effects Napthalene interferes with embryo development in experimental animals at dose levels that cause <br /> maternal toxicity. In humans,excessive exposure to this agent may cause hemolytic anemia in the <br /> mother and fetus. <br /> Teratogenicity The components of this product are not reported to cause teratogenic effects in humans. Based <br /> on best current information,there is no known teratogenicity associated with this product. <br /> Further information Symptoms may be delayed.Toxicological properties of this material have not been fully <br /> investigated. <br /> 12.
