Talk:Ethyl acrylate

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Recently somebody changed "possibly carcinogenic to humans" to "probably carcinogenic to humans". This is directly contrart to the cited source, and IARC report (linked), which states, "Ethyl acrylate is possibly carcinogenic to humans (Group 2B)." Therefore, the change appears to be vandalism. If anyone can elaborate, it would be appreciated. If the IARC has changed its position on ethyl acrylate, then a newer reference needs to be given. But the one cited and linked clearly says "possble" not "probable". —Preceding unsigned comment added by N'Awlins Contrarian (talkcontribs) 21:53, 20 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

From EPA website, "EPA has classified ethyl acrylate as a Group B2, probable human carcinogen, but has not developed a potency estimate to quantify risk by inhalation." Of course, this is not the IARC, which is cited in the article. Source: http://www.epa.gov/ttn/atw/hlthef/ethylacr.html 72.37.171.196 (talk) 12:58, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
