In the earlier problem it was found that
the city water was contaminated with
benzene and a resident has been
exposed to benzene through, ingestion,
dermal (swimming and shower),
inhalation pathways. Following daily
intake values were determined:
CDI - ingestion =1.24**10-4mgkg.d
CDI - ingestion (swimming)=4.11**10-7
mgkg.d
CDI-Dermal (shower)=1.04**10-6
mgkg.d
CDI-Dermal (swimming)=3.19**10-5
mgkg.d
Inhalation (showering)=1.71**10-5
mgkg.d
SLOPE FACTORS
Estimate the risk from exposure to drinking
water containing the MCL of benzene
In the earlier problem it was found that the city
