Results and discussion

Any other information on results incl. tables

NTP/NCI Carcinogens were clustered. DMP was put in Cluster 2 with clear evidence to induce lung and stomach cancer in male rats. The Ames test result of DMP is positive (50% of Cluster 2 Carcinogens had a positive Ames test result and 50 % a negative result). DMP is classified as a mutagenic substance. DMP is put in Group B: Agents found to be carcinogenic to only a single species but to be active at 2 or more sites in that species.
