| Abstract |
This publication represents the views and expert opinions on an IARC Working Group (Lyon, France, 9-16 June 1992). IARC final classification: Chinese-style salted fish and naturally occurring aflatoxins are carcinogenic in humans (Group 1); IQ (2-amino-3-methylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoline) is probably carcinogenic in humans (Group 2A); pickled vegetables (traditional Asian), caffeic acid, MeIQ (2-amino-3,4-dimethylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoline), MeIQx (2-amino-3,8-dimethylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoxaline), PhIP (2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazol[4,5-b]pyridine), aflatoxin M1, fumonisins B1 and B2, fusarin C and ochratoxin A are possibly carcinogenic in humans (Group 2B); other salted fish, d-Limonene, zearlenone, deoxynivalenol, nivalenol, fusarenone X and T-2 toxin are not classifiable as to their carninogenicity in humans (Group 3). |
