	[No title]
		Acetaldehyde is a federal hazardous air pollutant and was identified as a toxic air contaminant in April 1993 under AB 2728.
		Acetaldehyde is also used as a fruit and fish preservative, flavoring agent, a denaturant for alcohol, for hardening gelatin fibers, and as a solvent in the synthetic rubber, paraldehyde, tanning and paper industries (Sittig, 1985; U.S. EPA, 1987a).
		Of the risk assessments reviewed as of April 1996, acetaldehyde was the major contributor to the overall cancer risk in 1 of the approximately 550 risk assessments reporting a total cancer risk equal to or greater than 1 in 1 million and contributed to the total cancer risk in 129 of the these risk assessments.

		Acetaldehyde is a colorless liquid or gas that is commonly found throughout the environment.
		Acetaldehyde is produced from combustion from vehicle exhaust, from coal refining, wood burning or other types of incomplete combustion, such as in smoke from cigarettes.
		Acetaldehyde causes health effects from both short term (acute) exposures, such as in spills, and also long term (chronic) exposures, such as repeated occupational exposures.
