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.
Nickel is commonly alloyed with other metals to provide resistance to corrosion and heat, and to add strength and hardness. These alloys are used for industrial and consumer goods. Most of the nickel produced is used to make stainless steel.
