NCIt definition : A yellow, viscous, oily nitrosamine that is highly unstable in the presence of light.
N-Nitrosodiethanolamine is ubiquitously found in the environment and is a contaminant
formed by the reaction of nitrites with ethanolamines in a wide range of products
including tobacco, pesticides, antifreeze and personal care products. This substance
is only used for research purposes to induce tumors in experimental animals. N-Nitrosodiethanolamine
is reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen. (NCI05);
