SECTION 11 TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION - Continued
Not available
Carcinogenicity:
Others: Chronic effects:
Muhle et al. reported pulmonary response upon chronic inhalation exposure in rats to a toner enriched
in respirable-sized particles compared to commercial toner. No pulmonary change was found at
1 mg/m3 which is most relevant to potential human exposure. A minimal to mild degree of fibrosis
was noted in 22% of the animals at 4 mg/m3, and a mild to moderate degree of fibrosis was observed
in 92% of the animals at 16 mg/m3. These findings are attributed to "lung overloading", a generic
response to excessive amounts of any dust retained in the lung for a prolonged interval.

explosive mixtures in air. Disposal should be subject to federal, state or local
laws.
