Technical Basis
A review of available sources identified acute toxicity data (LD50, LDLo) for various routes and species. 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. Multiple human oral LDLo data were evaluated; of these, the most conservative dose was selected as the TEEL-3 basis (Section 3.3.1). TEEL-2 and TEEL-1 values were derived according to Table 3.5.
• PAC-1 = TEEL-1 = TEEL-2/11
• PAC-2 = TEEL-2 = TEEL-3/6
• PAC-3 = TEEL-3 = Human (male) oral LDLo (101 mg/kg)
This review generated PAC values inconsistent with Rev. 29A. The Rev 29A TEEL-3 data was based a human oral LDLo; similar studies were identified during this investigation; however, the current TEEL-3 basis is the most conservative value identified (Section 3.3.1).
