Acute oral toxicity (rat) LD
LO
: 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.
