Product Descriptions In the body, formaldehyde can cause proteins to irreversibly bind to DNA. Laboratory animals exposed to large doses of inhaled formaldehyde over their lifetimes have developed more cancers of the nose and throat than are usual, as have workers in particle-board sawmills… Formaldehyde is classified as a probable human carcinogen by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and as a known human carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer. More hazardous than most chemicals in 5 out of 12 ranking systems, on at least 8 federal regulatory lists, ranked as one of the most hazardous compounds (worst 10%) to ecosystems and human health (Environmental Defense Fund)	http://medguides.medicines.org.uk/displaypage.aspx?t=medicine&i=52 http://emc.medicines.org.uk/emc/industry/default.asp?remoteSearch=Begrivac http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=Begrivac%2C+intramuscular http://www.pei.de/nn_163516/EN/drugs/impfstoffe-am-en/influenza-en/influenza-node-en.html?__nnn=true

Product Descriptions	Prescribing Information Formaldehyde is an important chemical used widely by industry to manufacture building materials and numerous household products. It is also a by-product of combustion and certain other natural processes. Thus, it may be present in substantial concentrations both indoors and outdoors. Sources of formaldehyde in the home include building materials, smoking, household products, and the use of un-vented, fuel-burning appliances, like gas stoves or kerosene space heaters. Formaldehyde, by itself or in combination with other chemicals, serves a number of purposes in manufactured products. For example, it is used to add permanent-press qualities to clothing and draperies, as a component of glues and adhesives, and as a preservative in some paints and coating products. http://www.fda.gov/cber/efoi/approve.htm

Product Descriptions	Package Insert Health Effects Formaldehyde, a colorless, pungent-smelling gas, can cause watery eyes, burning sensations in the eyes and throat, nausea, and difficulty in breathing in some humans exposed at elevated levels (above 0.1 parts per million). High concentrations may trigger attacks in people with asthma. There is evidence that some people can develop a sensitivity to formaldehyde. It has also been shown to cause cancer in animals and may cause cancer in humans.  Health effects include eye, nose, and throat irritation; wheezing and coughing; fatigue; skin rash; severe allergic reactions. May cause cancer. May also cause other effects listed under "organic gases."  EPA's Integrated Risk Information System profile on Formaldehyde:www.epa.gov/iris/subst/0419.htm

This legislation, which adds a Title VI to TSCA, establishes limits for formaldehyde emissions from composite wood products: hardwood plywood, medium-density fiberboard, and particleboard. The national emission standards in the Act mirror standards previously established by the California Air Resources Board for products sold, offered for sale, supplied, used or manufactured for sale in California. Congress directs EPA to promulgate final regulations implementing the Act by January 1, 2013. Learn more atwww.epa.gov/opptintr/chemtest/formaldehyde/ .

Product Descriptions And Dr. Jay Gordon, pediatrician to the stars, told Cookie Magazine he wants formaldehyde out of the vaccines: Right now we’re creating vaccines using ingredients that are cheap preservatives, but it could be done better. It means, let’s see if we can get the aluminum out of them. Let’s see if we can get the formaldehyde out of them. Let’s see if we can produce them in a way that makes a little more sense for safety. The implication is clear. Formaldehyde, among other ingredients, is not safe. But then why is it used in the first place? Well, for starters, as surgical oncologist and medical blogger Orac explains, formaldehyde is merely used in the vaccine manufacturing process, and can only be detected in trace amounts at most in the vaccine itself by the time it is available to the public. According to Orac:	Package Insert ToxFAQs™ for Formaldehyde (Formaldehido) (June 1999) U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services, Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR)www.atsdr.cdc.gov/tfacts111.html Safety and Health Topics: Formaldehyde U.S. Dept. of Labor, Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) www.osha.gov/SLTC/formaldehyde/ American Lung Association www.lungusa.org
