Report on Carcinogens
ISSN (printed): 1551-8272. ISSN (electronic): 1551-8280.
The RoC is an informational scientific and public health document first ordered by Congress in 1978 that identifies and discusses agents, substances, mixtures, or exposure circumstances that may pose a hazard to human health by virtue of their carcinogenicity. The RoC is published biennially and serves as a meaningful and useful compilation of data on: 1. The carcinogenicity (ability to cause cancer), genotoxicity (ability to damage genes), and biologic mechanisms (modes of action in the body) of the listed substance in humans and/or animals. 2. The potential for human exposure to these substances. 3. Federal regulations to limit exposures.
