A closer look
What the research shows
Exact tetraacetylethylenediamine CAS 10543-57-4 has a HERA household-cleaner risk assessment. The publisher index labels its linked assessment Final in 2003, but the attached report cover explicitly says Draft December 2002. A genuinely final exact report could not be verified. Local TA and tranexamic-acid retrievals are unrelated.
