2.1 - 2.6 × 10 -4 (µg/m 3 ) -1 . Using the human and animal data, the range of cancer risks is from 2.1 to 37<br />

× 10 -4 (µg/m 3 ) -1 . The best value chosen for the upper bound of risk was 2.6 × 10 -4 (µg/m 3 ) -1 , derived<br />

from the human lung cancer incidence data. CDHS (1991) noted that the epidemiological studies<br />

indicate both soluble and insoluble nickel compounds are carcinogenic. However, the available<br />

epidemiologic data were inadequate to develop separate unit risk factors for different nickel<br />

compounds.<br />
