| Abstract |
Published as the "Current NIOSH Intelligence Bulletin No.19" this warning notice summarises the results of the U.S. National Cancer Institute animal study, the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) epidemiological studies, and other data, their implications for occupational health, and precautions for handling products containing 2,4-diaminoanisole. An estimated 400,000 people, mostly hairdressers and cosmeticians, are at risk in the USA. Fur dyers are probably exposed to higher levels. While the carcinogenicity of diaminoanisole is being evaluated, NIOSH recommends that occupational exposure, especially skin exposure, be minimised. |
