Well, while I have never read conclusively that dioxin-like compounds are genotoxic, they are considered teratogenic. They cause many kinds of birth defects.

We have covered a lot of ground. I take a conservative approach to reporting; I say what I know. However, I have not read the entire reevaluation of the toxicity of dioxin released circa 1992 -- but I have it in my document vault. It is very probably genotoxic though I settled on the language "causes birth defects" and multigenerational effects. Mostly, the problem is hormone disruption.
