we used experimental animal data to derive a human acute reference dose of 1.33 g/ kg body weight, which corresponds to maximum concentration of TTX in shellï¬sh of 200 g/kg.
Where & Why Nickel is Used. Nickel-containing materials play a major role in our everyday lives â food preparation equipment, mobile phones, medical equipment, transport, buildings, power generation â the list is almost endless.
Silvery white, tough, and harder than iron, nickel is widely familiar because of its use in coinage but is more important either as the pure metal or in the form of alloys for its many domestic and industrial applications. Elemental nickel very sparingly occurs together with iron in terrestrial and meteoric deposits.
