IARC Monographs evaluation of the carcinogenicity of quinoline, styrene, and styrene-7,8-oxide

The results of the recent IARC Monographs evaluation of the carcinogenicity of quinoline, styrene, and styrene-7,8-oxide have now been published in The Lancet Oncology. This summary article presents the conclusions of the IARC Monographs Meeting 121. The new evaluations of styrene and styrene-7,8-oxide update the previous evaluations by the IARC Monographs in 2002 and 1994, respectively. This is the first time an IARC Monographs Working Group has considered quinoline.

The full scientific assessment will be published as Volume 121 of the IARC Monographs.
