The recommended threshold limit value (TLV-ACGIH) air concentration for occupational exposure to water-insoluble hexavalent chromium Cr (VI) is 0.01 mg/m3. This concentration is based on an assumption that the individual is generally healthy and is exposed for 8 hours per day over a working lifetime (that is from age 18 to 65 years). Assuming a body weight of 78 kg and an inhalation rate of 0.63 m3/h over the working life of the individual, a. What is the lifetime (75 y) CDI? b. Estimate the low-dose cancer risk from occupational inhalation exposure to hexavalent chromium Cr(VI).
