The members of the Technical Reports Review Subcommittee who evaluated the draft NTP Report on diisopropylcarbodiimide on September 28, 2005, are listed below. Subcommittee members serve as independent scientists, not as representatives of any institution, company, or governmental agency. In this capacity, subcommittee members have five major responsibilities in reviewing the NTP studies:

• to ascertain that all relevant literature data have been adequately cited and interpreted,
• to determine if the design and conditions of the NTP studies were appropriate,
• to ensure that the Report presents the experimental results and conclusions fully and clearly,
• to judge the significance of the experimental results by scientific criteria, and
• to assess the evaluation of the evidence of carcinogenic activity and other observed toxic responses.
