Not oncogenic - does not cause birth defects.
Not mutagenic - does not cause cancer.
Slightly decrease testicular weight and minimal testicular atrophy observed in 2 year chronic study on rats.
Prolonged or repeated exposure to the solvents may cause liver and kidney damage.
Toxic decomposition products may be produced if burnt.
