NTP on agents of public health concern,
new/revised toxicological test methods,
or other issues. These panels help
ensure transparent, unbiased, and
scientifically rigorous input to the
program for its use in making credible
decisions about human hazard, setting
research and testing priorities, and
providing information to regulatory
agencies about alternative methods for
toxicity screening. The NTP welcomes
nominations of scientific experts for
upcoming panels. Scientists interested
in serving on an NTP panel should
provide a current curriculum vitae to
the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.
The authority for NTP panels is
provided by 42 U.S.C. 217a; section 222

the Federal Advisory Committee Act, as
amended (5 U.S.C. Appendix 2), which

Background Information on the RoC
Published biennially, each edition of
the RoC is cumulative and consists of
substances newly reviewed in addition
to those listed in previous editions. For
each listed substance, the RoC contains
a substance profile, which provides
information on cancer studies that
support the listing—including those in
humans, animals, and studies on
possible mechanisms of action—
information about potential sources of
exposure to humans, and current federal
regulations to limit exposures. The 13th
RoC, the latest edition, was published
