Ingestion:
In an inhalation study, a toxilogical lab found evidence of lung cancer (malignant tumors)
in one out of every 77 male rats and 13 out of 74 female rats after they were expose to
250mg/m鲁 Titanium Dioxide repairable dust for a two-year period. No compound related
tumors were found in rats at the 10 or 50mg/m鲁 exposure levels. The exposure level of
Carcinogenicity:
250 mg/m3 is approximately 50 times that permitted in an occupational environment.
To our knowledge, no such results have been experienced by humans. The National
Cancer Institute (NCI) conducted a feeding study in rats and mice in which either 25000
or 50000 ppm titanium dioxide was given in their diet for two years. Under the conditions
