data in the rat ranges from a 5minute value of 10,000-14,000 ppm to a 60-minute value of approximately 4000 ppm EPA 2005. Guidelines for human exposure to carbon monoxide include the following: ACGIH 8-hour TLVTWA of 25 ppm; NIOSH 8-hour TWA of 35 ppm and IDLH of 1200 ppm; OSHA PEL of 50 ppm; 1hour Emergency Response Planning Guidelines (ERPG-1)
