Local Effects : See Chronic Toxicity or Long term Toxicity
Chronic Toxicity or Long term Toxicity :
In a two-year inhalation study of chronic toxicity and carcinogenicity using a typical toner in rats, there were no lung changes
at all in the lowest exposure level (1 mg/m3), the most relevant level to potential human exposures. A minimal to mild degree
of fibrosis was noted in 22% of the animals at the middle exposure level (4 mg/m3), and a mild to moderate degree of fibrosis
was observed in 92 % of the rats at the highest exposure level (16mg/m3). The lung changes observed in the higher exposure
groups are interpreted in term of “lung overloading”, a series of generic responses to the presence of large quantities of
respirable, insoluble and relatively benign dusts retained for extended time periods in the lungs. Lung tumor frequency was
unchanged among rats exposed to toner at the three exposure levels, and for air-only control rats.
Carcinogenicity
IARC Monographs: Not listed
NTP(USA): Not listed
OSHA Regulated(USA): Not listed
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 levels that induce particle overload of the lung.
Studies performed in animal models other than rats have not demonstrated an association between carbon
black and lung tumors. Moreover, a two-year cancer bioassay using a typical toner preparation containing
