Screening assessment for the challenge : Phenol, (1,1-dimethylethyl)-4-methoxy-(Butylated hydroxyanisole) : Chemical Abstracts Service registry number 25013-16-5. : En14-360/2010E-PDF

"The Ministers of the Environment and of Health have conducted a screening assessment of phenol, (1,1-dimethylethyl)-4-methoxy- (also known as butylated hydroxyanisole or BHA), Chemical Abstracts Service Registry Number 25013-16-5. The substance BHA was identified in the categorization of the Domestic Substances List as a high priority for action under the Challenge, as it was determined to present intermediate potential for exposure of individuals in Canada and was considered to present a high hazard to human health, based upon classification by other agencies on the basis of carcinogenicity. The substance did not meet the ecological categorization criteria for persistence, bioaccumulation or inherent toxicity to aquatic organisms. Therefore, this assessment focuses principally upon information relevant to the evaluation of risks to human health"--Synopsis, p. ii.
