title: Critique of the toxicology and carcinogenesis studies of iodinated glycerol in F344/N rats and B6C3F1 mice.
abstract: Carter-Wallace conducted a detailed audit and evaluation of the data available from the carcinogenicity studies with iodinated glycerol conducted in the B6C3F1 mouse and the F344/N rat by the National Toxicology Program (NTP). We conclude that there is no evidence of carcinogenicity of the compound in either the B6C3F1 mouse or the F344/N rat.
