Differences in levels of health effects and cancer effects between male and females are not indicated in Figure 3-2. Where such differences exist, only the levels of effect for the most sensitive gender are presented.
- c
Used to derive an acute-duration oral MRL of 0.1 mg/kg/day; dose divided by an uncertainty factory of 300 (3 for use of a minimal LOAEL, 10 for extrapolation from animals to humans, and 10 for human variability).
- d
Used to derive a chronic-duration oral MRL of 0.09 mg/kg/day; dose adjusted for intermittent exposure and divided by an uncertainty factory of 300 (3 for use of a minimal LOAEL, 10 for extrapolation from animals to humans, and 10 for human variability).
