{{cite journal}}: CS1 maint: DOI inactive as of July 2025 (link)"The extensive tests on cancer risk indicate that the chemical additive does not damage DNA, is not genotoxic in other words, and that at the doses approved presents no cancer risk. In cancer studies in rodents the chemical was noted to be associated with some benign changes in mesenchymal cells in a few male animals tested (mesenchymal cells are found in many tissues and can be converted to connective tissue, lymphatic tissue, bone or cartilage). However, there is a safety factor of some 170 between the dose at which some benign tumours were seen in rodents and the dose of the additive considered safe by the FSA.
