Consensus Reports:
NCI Carcinogenesis Bioassay (feed); No Evidence: mouse NCITR* National Cancer Institute Carcinogenesis Technical Report Series. (Bethesda, MD 20014) No. NCI-CG-TR-54 ,1978. ; Some Evidence: rat NCITR* National Cancer Institute Carcinogenesis Technical Report Series. (Bethesda, MD 20014) No. NCI-CG-TR-54 ,1978. .

SAFETY PROFILE:
Suspected carcinogen with experimental carcinogenic and neoplastigenic data. Poison by ingestion and subcutaneous routes. Experimental reproductive effects. A skin irritant. Mutation data reported. An irritant and an allergen. Can cause anemia, methemoglobinemia, cyanosis, and liver damage. Combustible when exposed to heat or flame; can react with oxidizing materials. To fight fire, use water spray or mist, dry chemical. Decomposes when heated to 250°C. There are instances of explosion during manufacture or storage. Mixture with nitric acid is a high explosive. Mixture with sodium carbonate can decompose with significant pressure increase at 210°C. Mixtures with other alkalies may have the same effect. Ignites on contact with sodium oxide. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of NOx.
