In mice, nickel chloride produces a dose-dependent increase in abnormal lymphoma cells (WHO 1991). Mice given high concentrations of nickel in drinking water, equivalent to 23 mg Ni/kg BW daily and higher, have an increased incidence of micronuclei in bone marrow (USPHS 1993). However, mice injected once with 50 mg Ni/kg BW as nickel chloride show no evidence of mutagenicity (USPHS 1977). [Pg.458]

Also reported are drinking water equivalent levels (DWELs). The DWEL is defined by the U.S. EPA as a lifetime exposure concentration protective of adverse, noncancer health effects that assumes all exposure to a contaminant is derived from drinking water. [Pg.24]

The intake value can then be converted to an air or drinking water equivalent for the corresponding environmental standards. It is important that cancer risk assessments be performed by trained risk assessors who have the training, experience, and understanding of the toxicological principles and the risk assessment methodologies involved. [Pg.404]

It indicates that in the worst case modelled (very high plumbosolvency and 90% of houses with a lead pipe) 56.6% of the houses in the zone were predicted to exceed the benchmark for lead in drinking water, equivalent to the percentage of the zone s population at risk on this basis. [Pg.53]
