The three cancer clusters just discussed are interesting to analyze. Two different sets of chemical mixtures (in electronics workers and petrochemical workers) induced brain cancers in those exposed, whereas in one instance (the second electronics worker group) only the children of those exposed developed brain cancer. These studies show that different mixtures of chemicals can induce the same cancer types and that different mechanisms are at work in the development of the same cancer type. In all three clusters, none of the individual chemicals that the workers were exposed to is known to be causative for brain cancer. [Pg.563]
