Technical Basis
A review of available sources identified rat and mouse LD50 acute toxicity data for various routes, and TWA values for nickel. 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. The most preferred source, a rat oral LD50, was selected as the TEEL-3 basis. The TEEL-2 value was derived according to Table 3.5. The TWA value for soluble nickel was selected as the TEEL-1 basis and a compound adjustment factor (Section 3.2.2) was applied.
• TEEL-1 = MW-adjusted TLV-TWA (soluble nickel compounds, CASRN: 7440-02-0, 0.1) TLV-TWA x 3
• TEEL-2 = TEEL-3/6
• TEEL-3 = Rat oral LD50 (400 mg/kg)
This review generated TEEL values that are consistent with Rev. 29A*.
• TEEL-1 = MW-adjusted TLV-TWA (soluble nickel compounds, CASRN: 7440-02-0, 0.1) TLV-TWA x 3
• TEEL-2 = TEEL-3/6
• TEEL-3 = Rat oral LD50 (400 mg/kg)
This review generated TEEL values that are consistent with Rev. 29A*.
