NCIt synonyms : N,N-diethylnitrosamine; N-ethyl-N-nitroso-ethanamine; NDEA;
NCIt definition : A synthetic light-sensitive, volatile, clear yellow oil that is soluble in water,
lipids, and other organic solvents. It is used as gasoline and lubricant additive,
antioxidant, and stabilizer for industry materials. When heated to decomposition,
N-nitrosodiethylamine emits toxic fumes of nitrogen oxides. N-Nitrosodiethylamine
affects DNA integrity, probably by alkylation, and is used in experimental research
to induce liver tumorigenesis. It is considered to be reasonably anticipated to be
a human carcinogen. (NCI05);
