Although no animal studies of the supplement's cancer-causing potential have yet been done, the genetic changes observed in the laboratory suggest that this widely sold supplement could be carcinogenic.

Promotion tests could supplement, if not replace, some conventional animal tests used to check the cancer-causing potential of chemicals, Dr. Pitot said.

Dr. Newman and Dr. Hulley performed no new tests for cancer-causing potential.

Such damage is considered an indicator of a substance's cancer-causing potential.

A1 Dioxin's cancer-causing potential is less than had previously been described, according to a Government estimate in a draft study.

The current research shows that radon has the cancer-causing potential of smoking possibly dozens of cartons of cigarettes PER DAY!!!!

The Environmental Protection Agency has revised its estimate of the cancer-causing potential of dioxin, a widespread chemical pollutant.

For example, as part of the general assessment, the agency is encouraging a more descriptive approach to characterizing a substance's cancer-causing potential.

Some claims in these cases allege that Owens-Illinois was a participant in the seventh annual Saranac Seminar when the cancer-causing potential of asbestos was studied in the 1950s.

Officials say they hope that by taking the mechanics of cancer into account, the new approach will more precisely measure a chemical's cancer-causing potential.
