Section 11: Toxicological Information:

Acute oral toxicity (rat) LDLO: Over 5.0 g/kg Ames Test result: Negative

Carcinogenicity: In 1996, the IARC reevaluated carbon black as a GROUP 2B carcinogen (possible human carcinogen). This evaluation is given to carbon black for which there is inadequate human evidence, but sufficient animal evidence. The latter is based upon the development of lung tumors in rats receiving chronic inhalation exposures to free carbon black at a level that induce particle overload of the lungs. Studies performed in mice have not demonstrated an association between carbon black and lung tumors. Moreover, a two-year cancer bioassay using a typical toner preparation containing carbon black demonstrated no association between toner and tumor development in rats.
