520 Formaldehyde is ubiquitous in indoor and outdoor air, and
everyone is exposed to formaldehyde at some concentration
daily. Formaldehyde is used to produce a wide array of
products, particularly building materials; it is emitted
from many sources, including power plants, cars, gas and
wood stoves, and cigarettes; it is a natural product in
some foods; and it is naturally present in the human body
as a metabolic intermediate. Much research has been
conducted on the health effects of exposure to
formaldehyde, including effects on the upper airway, where
formaldehyde is deposited when inhaled, and effects on
tissues distant from the site of initial contact. The U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released noncancer
and cancer assessments of formaldehyde for its Integrated
Risk Information System (IRIS) in 1990 and 1991,
respectively. The agency began reassessing formaldehyde in
1998 and released a draft IRIS assessment in June 2010.
Given the complexity of the issues and the knowledge that
the assessment will be used as the basis of regulatory
decisions, EPA asked the National Research Council (NRC)
to conduct an independent scientific review of the draft
IRIS assessment. In this report, the Committee to Review
EPA's Draft IRIS Assessment of Formaldehyde first
addresses some general issues associated with the draft
IRIS assessment. The committee next focuses on questions
concerning specific aspects of the draft assessment,
including derivation of the reference concentrations and
the cancer unit risk estimates for formaldehyde. The
committee closes with recommendations for improving the
IRIS assessment of formaldehyde and provides some general
comments on the IRIS development process.
