SECTION XII – TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
NTP STUDY ON DIETHANOLAMINE:
Findings from the National Toxicology Program suggest an increased incidence of liver tumors in
both sexes of mice and an increased incidence of kidney tumors in male mice dermally exposed
for their lifetime to Diethanolamine. The significance of these findings and their relevance to
humans are not clear as Diethanolamine was nor genotoxic (neither mutagenic nor clastogenic),
and did not induce tumors in rats or transgenic mice similarly tested.

Additional research, which is designed to provide a better understanding of these observations to

humans, if any, is underway.
