Recently, they are facing allegations regarding the company’s Allentown, PA facility exposing workers and nearby residents to dangerous levels of the chemical ethylene oxide. Ethylene Braun Ethylene Oxide and Cancer, also referred to as EtO, is a flammable gas used by B. Braun, as a sterilizing agent for certain medical devices. However, in 2016, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) considered EtO a human carcinogen.
One of the major issues caused by EtO is that it has been linked to certain types of cancer. According to the Centers for Disease Control, exposure to EtO can lead to a significant increase in the likelihood of developing certain cancers of the white blood cells.
These include:
