In page Daminozide:

"

When daminozide residue on fruit is consumed by mammalian species, it is catabolised into two chemical components, succinic acid (a non-toxic general intermediate in primary metabolism[citation needed]), and 1, 1-dimethylhydrazine ("unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine", UDMH). Degradation into these products also occurs when the sprayed chemical residue remains on stored fruit, increasing with time and elevated temperature.[1] UDMH has had a history of studies associating it with carcinogenic activity in animal models relevant to humans, beginning in the 1960s.[1]
