Box 12233 Research Triangle Park, North Carolina 27709 Contract No. N01-ES-65402 Submitted by Karen E. Haneke, M.S. Integrated Laboratory Systems, Inc. P.O. Box 13501 Research Triangle Park, North Carolina 27709 November 2002 Toxicological Summary for Dimethylethanolamine and Selected Salts and Esters 11/2002 Executive Summary Nomination Dimethylethanolamine (DMAE) was nominated by the NIEHS for toxicological characterization, including metabolism, reproductive and developmental toxicity, subchronic toxicity, carcinogenicity and mechanistic studies. The nomination is based on the potential for widespread human exposure to DMAE through its use in industrial and consumer products and an inadequate toxicological database. Studies to address potential hazards of consumer (e.g. dietary supplement) exposures, including use by pregnant women and children, and the potential for reproductive effects and carcinogenic effects are limited.
