Carcinogenicity. A number of metals have been shown to be carcinogenic in humans or animals. Arsenic, certain chromium compounds, and nickel are known human carcinogens beryllium, cadmium, and cisplatin are probable human carcinogens. The carcinogenic action, in some cases, is thought to result from the interaction of the metallic ions with DNA (see Chapter 11 for a detailed discussion of carcinogenesis). [Pg.50]

Although available information from epidemiological studies is insufficient to confirm human carcinogenesis, the data strongly suggest beryllium is associated with cancer in humans, and it is categorized... [Pg.266]
