5. Summary of Data Reported and Evaluation

5.1 Animal carcinogenicity data

No carcinogenic effect was observed in adult mice and rats following oral or subcutaneous administration of maleic hydrazide. The significance of hepatomas obtained in newborn mice cannot be assessed because of the contamination of maleic hydrazide with hydrazine.

5.2 Human carcinogenicity data

No epidemiological data are available to the Working Group.
