    Odor threshold>

    • Odor Threshold Low: 0.58 [mmHg]. Odor Threshold High: 10.0 [mmHg]. Detection odor threshold from AIHA (mean = 2.4 ppm)
    • Its aromatic or fishy odor can generally be perceived at 1 ppm which is below established occupational safety limits (OSHA PEL-TWA is 5 ppm), and thus, odor usually provides an adequate indication of hazardous concentrations.
    • Human odor perception: Nonperception: 0.34 mg/cu m, Perception: 0.37 mg/cu m
    • 0.58 - 10 ppm
    • Recognition threshold 1.00 ppm (medium: air; modality: odor; sample purity: chemically pure)
    • Low threshold = 0.0002 mg/cu m High threshold = 350.0 mg/cu m
