See Section 11 for additional information on <br /> hazards of engine exhaust, if any <br /> Hazardous Polymerxzat-Lon- Will not occur <br /> 11 . TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION <br /> Gasoline (CAS# None) <br /> Carcinogenicity. Two year inhalation studies of wholly vaporized <br /> unleaded gasoline produced increased .incidences of kidney tumors <br /> in-male rats and liver tumors in female mice Follow-up studies <br /> suggest that occurrence of the kidney tumors may be linked to <br /> alpha-2-u-globulin nephropathy, and most likely unique to the <br /> male ratEpidemiology_ data collected from a study of more than <br /> a 18, 000 petroleum marketing and distribution workers showed no <br /> increased risk of leukemia, multiple myeloma, or kidney cancer <br /> from gasoline exposure. Unleaded gasoline has been identified <br /> as a possible carcinogen by IARC . <br /> Because solvent extracts of gasoline exhaust particulates caused <br /> skin cancer in laboratory animals, IARC has categorized gasoline <br /> engine exhaust as a possible human cancer hazard <br /> Target Organ (s) . A two year inhalation study of wholly vaporized <br /> unleaded gasoline produced nephropathy in male rats, <br /> Issue Date : 03/29/99 Status : Final Revised <br /> Revised Sections - 1, 2, 3, 4 , 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 14 <br />
