Canadian Environmental Protection Act priority substances list assessment report: Dichloromethane

Health Canada 1993

Abstract  In Canada, approximately 13.2 kilotonnes of dichloromethane are used annually, in such applications as paint removal, as a blowing agent in foam production, and as a component in aerosols. Due to its volatility and the dispersive nature of its uses, the majority of dichloromethane used may be released into the environment, primarily the atmosphere. Dichloromethane has been measured in indoor air, outdoor air, and surface waters across Canada. Based on these considerations, it has been concluded that dichloromethane occurs at concentrations that may be harmful to the environment, and that may constitute a danger in Canada to human life or health. It has been concluded that dichloromethane occurs at concentrations that do not constitute a danger to the environment on which human life depends.

Toxicological profile for methylene chloride

Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry 2000

Abstract  The ATSDR toxicological profile succinctly characterizes the toxicologic and adverse health effects information for the hazardous substance described here. Each peer-reviewed profile identifies and reviews the key literature that describes a hazardous substance's toxicologic properties. Other pertinent literature is also presented, but is described in less detail than the key studies.
