CANCER Risk From Bifenthrin

The article entitled: "Tumor-promoting activity and mutagenicity of 5 termiticide compounds" (Source: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15624354?dopt=Abstract; Journal of UOEH, 2004 Dec 1;26(4):423-30; accessed: August 2009) seems to imply that Bifenthrin can cause cancer.

Note: "The tumor-promoting activities of 5 commercial compounds used in termiticides were measured by a cell-transformation assay employing Bhas 42 cells...  The results of the transformation assay confirmed the tumor-promoting activities of fenitrothion, silafluofen and bifenthrin...  Consideration of 2-stage carcinogenesis suggests that concurrent use of and long-term exposure to these compounds that have tumor-promoting and initiator activity, and compounds exhibiting either type of activity individually should be avoided as much as possible."
