Toluene is considered a reproductive toxin by the State of California
(OEHHA 2004) and the EU (UNECE 2004).
In its establishment of a public health goal for toluene in drinking
water, California's Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment found
that “Studies in animals have shown a clear association of toluene
exposure with developmental toxicity” (OEHHA 1999), including reduced
fetal weight, and bone growth deficiencies and deformities.

Condoms pose deadly threat
German scientists came to the conclusion that the majority of condoms
contain carcinogens causing cancer.

According to the specialists of the Institute of Chemical Research in
Shtutgart, Germany, 29 out of the 32 kinds of the researched condoms
contain N-Nitrosamine carcinogen.

"N-Nitrosamine is one of the most poisonous carcinogens?, said the
research author. ?Condom producers should be pressed to deal with this
issue?.

Scientists suspect that this carcinogen is contained in the additional
substances condoms are made of. After the rubber contacts person-s skin,
the dangerous substance can penetrate into the person-s organism.
