Technical Basis
A review of available sources identified rat and mouse acute toxicity (LC50, LD50) for inhalation and oral exposures. Data sources were selected according to the hierarchy listed in Table 3.1. Toxicity data were selected according to type of exposure, species, and route according to the hierarchies stated in Sections 3.3.1, 3.3.2, and evaluated using factors in Tables 3.2, 3.3, and 3.4. A four-hour rat LC50 was selected as the TEEL-3 basis and was scaled to 60-minute equivalent using the ten Berge equation (Section 3.3.4). The TEEL-2 and TEEL-1 values were derived according to Table 3.5.
• TEEL-1 = TEEL-2/11
• TEEL-2 = TEEL-3/6
• TEEL-3 = Rat LC50 (980 mg/m3/4H)
This review generated TEEL values consistent with Rev. 29A*.
