Trimethylbenzene Toxicity Profile. Toxicity profile for US EPA, Office of Water. Critically reviewed and summarized the toxicokinetics, health effects in humans and animals, and the mechanism of toxicity from oral and inhalation exposure to trimethlbenzene. Identified likely critical effects, NOAEL and LOAEL for developing an RfD, and discussed data gaps in deriving the risk values.

Occupational Hazard Profile Documentation. Toxicological summary documents on methyl methacrylate, aluminum, and bentonite for NIOSH. These documents reviewed non-cancer and cancer health effects, as well as data on genotoxicity, reproductive and developmental effects, and toxicokinetics in both humans and animals following acute or chronic exposure.

 

Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health Review Document. Review document prepared for NIOSH. Reviewed and summarized acute toxicity of acrolein, chlorinated camphene, chloroacetaldehyde, carbon disulfide, and carbon monoxide in humans and animals after inhalation exposure. Discussed the likelihood of loss of life or permanent physical impairments, or substantial neurotoxic effects that would impair a worker's ability to escape at IDLH level based on available toxicity information, and critically evaluated the IDLH levels currently used by NIOSH for data quality and propriety.

Use of Early Effect Biomarker Data to Enhance Dose-Response Models of Lung Tumors in Rats Exposed to Titanium Dioxide. This report presents a biologically-informed empirical dose-response modeling approach that incorporates biomarker data and lung tumor response in rats exposed to titanium dioxide (TiO2).  The models are a series of linked “cause-effect” functions describing the relationships between successive key events, including the ultimate tumor response. Although enhancements to the model are needed before it or similar models can be used for regulatory purposes, the biomarker-based modeling approach provides a more-refined dose-response estimation than that obtained using the traditional approach of dose-response modeling based only on administered dose and clinical endpoint data.
