Regulatory Bodies Present Conflicting Carcinogen Classifications

Multiple international and national regulatory bodies have presented differing classifications regarding the carcinogenic risk of an unspecified substance to humans. The World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has categorized it as "probably carcinogenic to humans," citing a link to non-Hodgkin lymphoma, while other agencies maintain it is unlikely to pose such a risk.

IARC's Carcinogenicity Classification

The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), which is part of the World Health Organization (WHO), has classified a specific substance as "probably carcinogenic to humans." This assessment is based on a cited link to non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

Alternative Regulatory Positions

In contrast, other regulatory bodies have reached different conclusions regarding the substance's potential to cause cancer in humans. The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) have both determined that the substance is unlikely to pose a carcinogenic risk to humans.
