Appendix D Food Codes for NHANES - OEHHA

Scientific Review Panel Draft February, 2012
Mercury in the liquid vehicle was also applied at two concentrations of 0.0088
and 0.0607 nmol/cm 3 . At the low dose, percent of applied dose penetrating skin
to the receptor fluid was 1.64 and 4.80% at 24 and 72 hrs, respectively. At the
high dose, percent of applied dose penetrating skin to the receptor fluid was 0.34
and 0.93% at 24 and 72 hrs, respectively. Percent of applied dose retained in
skin at 72 hrs was 18.93 and 44.97% for the low and high dose, respectively.
