Preface

The United States Environmental Protection Agency, Office of Pesticide Programs (EPA/OPP) is

currently conducting a Registration Review of synthetic pyrethroids; the status of the review is

publicly available (EPA 2016). Separate publicly accessible dockets1 have been established by

EPA/OPP which provide detailed evaluation documents, including data call-ins, for each of these

pyrethroids.

The Pyrethroid Working Group (PWG) is a task force whose members include the six primary

registrants2 of the following nine synthetic pyrethroid active ingredients: bifenthrin, cyfluthrin,

cyhalothrin, cypermethrin, deltamethrin, esfenvalerate, fenpropathrin, permethrin, and tefluthrin.

The PWG is submitting this study in support of the Registration Review of these nine synthetic

pyrethroid active ingredients. It is understood that EPA/OPP may also rely upon this study in

support of the registration and/or registration review of other active ingredients. This study is

subject to the data compensation provisions of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and

Rodenticide Act (FIFRA).

Executive Summary

The aquatic toxicity profiles of synthetic pyrethroid insecticides are remarkably similar, and

results for a large numbers of species can be combined across compounds in Species Sensitivity

Distributions (SSDs). Normalizing acute toxicity values (median lethal concentrations, LC50s)

for each species and each pyrethroid to the LC50 of the same pyrethroid to the freshwater

amphipod Hyalella azteca (the most sensitive species to all pyrethroids tested) enabled

expression of LC50s as Hyalella equivalents that can be pooled across pyrethroids. The resulting

normalized LC50s (geometric means for each species across pyrethroids) were analyzed using

SSDs. Based on tests with measured exposure concentrations, the 5th percentiles (Hazard

Concentrations, HC5s) of the SSDs were 4.8 Hyalella equivalents for arthropods (36 species)

and 256 Hyalella equivalents for fish (24 species). HC5 values are useful as effects metrics for

screening-level risk assessments, and the full SSDs can be integrated with estimated exposure

distributions for higher-level risk characterization. The combined pyrethroid SSDs provide a

more taxonomically representative and statistically robust basis for risk characterization than

data for the most sensitive single species, or SSDs based on data for a single pyrethroid alone,

and are especially useful for pyrethroids that have been tested with smaller numbers of species.

1 Introduction Synthetic pyrethroids are a class of insecticides registered for agricultural, residential, and public

health uses for more than 35 years. These compounds are synthetic analogs of pyrethrins, which

are naturally occurring esters found in the flower of the pyrethrum plant, Tanacetum

cinerariifolium. Pyrethroids are highly toxic to insects and some other arthropod groups but have

relatively low toxicity to vertebrates. Commonly used pyrethroid active ingredients (AIs) include

bifenthrin, cyfluthrin, cypermethrin, deltamethrin, esfenvalerate, fenpropathrin, cyhalothrins, and

permethrin, among others, as well as various refined isomer mixtures of these compounds.

Because pyrethroids may enter surface waters through spray drift and surface runoff following

insecticide application, their toxicity to aquatic species has been extensively tested. The

Pyrethroid Working Group (PWG), a consortium of pyrethroid registrants, has worked for more

than a decade to obtain, evaluate, and compile relevant, reliable data on the toxicity of synthetic

pyrethroids to aquatic organisms. The PWG aquatic toxicity database contains endpoints and

supporting information from more than 1,100 open literature publications and registrant-

sponsored study reports. The database currently includes more than 5,300 records for 9

pyrethroids (and their isomer variants and degradates) and nearly 350 species (79 crustaceans, 99

insects, 86 fish, 31 mollusks, and 52 other species).

Examination of the extensive aquatic toxicity database for pyrethroids reveals remarkable

similarities in the toxicity profiles of different pyrethroid active ingredients (AIs) (Giddings and

Wirtz 2014). The relative sensitivity of crustaceans, insects, fish, mollusks, and aquatic plants to

pyrethroids is quite consistent across AIs. Species Sensitivity Distributions (SSDs) are a tool to

integrate toxicity data for multiple species for a variety of purposes in ecological risk assessment

and environmental regulation (Maltby et al. 2005; Posthuma et al. 2002; Van den Brink et al.

2006). The large number of species tested and the consistency of species sensitivities across

pyrethroids provides an opportunity to develop exceptionally robust and comprehensive SSDs

that combine data across the pyrethroids as a group. Combining the data across AIs broadens the

data available for individual pyrethroids and results in a more complete characterization of

species sensitivity. It is especially useful for AIs that have been tested with smaller numbers of

species.

The PWG has conducted risk assessments using combined pyrethroid SSDs for arthropods and

fish in two ways. First, the 5th percentiles (Hazard Concentration, HC5) of the combined SSDs

are used as benchmarks for risk characterization, specifically as the denominators of Risk

Quotients (EPA 2004) for acute risk to arthropods and fish. Second, the full SSDs for arthropods

and fish are integrated with distributions of model-derived exposure concentrations to generate

Joint Probability Curves (JPCs) depicting the magnitude and likelihood of effects on arthropod

and fish communities (ECOFRAM 1999). The combined SSDs are also useful for derivation of

water quality criteria for pyrethroids and for evaluation of potential toxicity of pyrethroid

mixtures in ambient water. The combined pyrethroid SSDs provide a more taxonomically

representative and statistically robust basis for risk characterization than data for the most

sensitive species or SSDs based on data for a single AI alone.

This report describes the selection of data for deriving combined pyrethroid SSDs, the steps in

the data analysis, and the resulting acute SSDs for arthropods and fish.

2 Methods The approach for developing combined pyrethroid SSDs involved normalizing the acute toxicity

values (LC50s) for each species to the LC50 of the freshwater amphipod Hyalella azteca for the

same AI, and expressing the result as Hyalella equivalents. The data for H. azteca are ideal as the

basis for normalizing the toxicity data. The PWG conducted H. azteca acute toxicity tests with 9

PWG-supported pyrethroids (bifenthrin, cyfluthrin, lambda- and gamma-cyhalothrin,

cypermethrin, deltamethrin, esfenvalerate, fenpropathrin, and permethrin) between 2012 and

2014 to fulfill data requirements for product registration. All of the tests were conducted in the

same laboratory following Good Laboratory Practices using the same test protocol, the same

stock of test organisms, and the same dilution water. As such, the H. azteca data provide a highly

reliable and consistent basis for comparison among AIs. Moreover, H. azteca has been found to

be the most sensitive species to all of the pyrethroids tested, and therefore plays a key role in

aquatic risk assessment.

2.1 Selection of toxicity data for analysis

Acute toxicity data were taken from the PWG pyrethroid aquatic toxicity database (Giddings and

Wirtz 2012; 2014; 2015). This database was compiled from reports provided by each of the

PWG member companies and from public documents (reports and peer-reviewed publications)

identified through a comprehensive literature search. Reports and publications (primary sources)

were evaluated using a set of objective criteria3, and only studies that met the evaluation criteria

were used in the analysis.

A single Key Value was selected for each study using a second set of criteria that included

measured endpoint (e.g., LC50 or EC50), exposure duration, measured response (mortality), life

stage (most sensitive), test conditions (most closely approximating standard test conditions

according to US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) or other regulatory guidelines), and

exposure regime (flow-through preferred over static or static-renewal). If, after application of

Key Value selection criteria, multiple values remained (e.g., in studies with repeated trials, or

studies using test organisms from different sources), the geometric mean was calculated and used

as the Key Value for that study.

From the set of Key Values (one for each study), Species Final Values (SFVs) were selected for

each AI and each species. Criteria for selection of SFVs were similar to those used for selection

of Key Values. Key Values from studies with measured exposure concentrations were preferred

over nominal concentrations for SFVs. In cases where only one Key Value met the criteria for a

given test substance, that Key Value was identified as the SFV. When two or more Key Values

met the selection criteria equally, the geometric mean of the Key Values was calculated and used

as the SFV. A separate SFV was selected for the technical grade active ingredient (TGAI) and

for each formulation or formulation type. Differences between TGAI and formulation toxicity

were generally minimal (Giddings and Wirtz 2014), but only SFVs for TGAI were used in the

SSD analysis. A few SFVs were derived from “greater-than” LC50 values and these were used in

the analysis without the “greater-than” sign. All SFVs are shown in Table 5.

3 See Appendix A. for criteria for study evaluation, Key Value selection, and Species Final Value selection.

Page 12: Derivation of Combined Species Sensitivity Distributions for Acute … · 2019. 5. 20. · Synthetic pyrethroids are a class of insecticides registered for agricultural, residential,

More than half of the SFVs were endpoints based on nominal exposure concentrations, or

concentrations measured only in the stock solutions or only at test initiation. Data from studies

with measured exposure concentrations are considered more reliable than data from studies with

nominal concentrations, and were used in this analysis. However, because including all studies

(measured and nominal concentrations) more than doubled the number of species for which data

were available, we conducted a comparative SSD analysis for each taxon using both measured

and nominal SFVs.

2.2 Calculation of Hyalella equivalents

For each species and AI, the SFV LC50 (µg/L) was converted to Hyalella equivalents by

dividing the LC50 for that species by the 96-h LC50 for H. azteca. The number of resulting

Hyalella equivalents (see Table 5) for each species ranged from 1 (i.e., data available for only

one AI) to 9 (i.e., data available for all 9 AIs). The geometric mean of the 1 to 9 Hyalella

equivalents for each species was used to represent that species in the combined pyrethroid SSD.

The final sets of geometric mean Hyalella equivalents were the basis for the combined

pyrethroid SSDs.

2.3 Statistical analysis

Each set of geometric mean Hyalella equivalent LC50s (Table 1) was analyzed using the EPA

SSD Generator V1, available at http://www.epa.gov/caddis/da_software_ssdmacro.html. This

tool uses Microsoft Excel® functions to estimate the slope and intercept of a linear regression

model with log(LC50) (in this case, expressed as Hyalella equivalents) as the independent

variable and normalized species rank as the dependent variable. Species rank is expressed as a

percentile (p) using the Hazen relationship: p = (n-0.5)/N, where n is the rank of the species and

N is the total number of species. Hazen values are normalized using the Excel NORMINV()

function for use in the regression analysis. The prediction intervals for the concentration

corresponding to a given percentile (e.g., the HC5) are estimated using the method of Neter et al.

(1990).

3 Results The final sets of mean Hyalella equivalent LC50s are shown in Table 1 (arthropods) and Table 2

(fish). The individual Hyalella equivalents for each AI are presented in Table 5. Figure 1 shows

the distributions of Hyalella equivalent LC50s for crustaceans, insects, and fish, as well as for

amphibians and mollusks (which were not included in the SSDs; data shown in Table 5) for tests

with measured concentrations. The median Hyalella equivalent LC50 for crustaceans was nearly

2 orders of magnitude greater than the lowest LC50 (1 Hyalella equivalent for H. azteca). The

median for insects was 186 Hyalella equivalents, and the median for fish was 1700 Hyalella

equivalents. Data were available for only 2 amphibian species, both approximately 10,000

Hyalella equivalents. Mollusks ranged from 2200 to 1,000,000 Hyalella equivalents.

Individual SSDs for each taxon with prediction intervals and data points are shown in Figure 2

(arthropods) and Figure 3 (fish). The model parameters (lognormal regression intercept and

slope) and the estimated HC5 values and prediction intervals are shown in Table 3. The HC5 for

36 arthropod species (Figure 2) was 4.8 (95% prediction interval 2.8-8.3) Hyalella equivalents.

The HC5 for 24 fish species (Figure 3) was 256 (149-438) Hyalella equivalents. When SFVs

SSDs for individual pyrethroids were generated from the combined SSDs and compared with

data for each individual AI. Results for arthropods are shown in Figure 4. Observed AI LC50s

for individual species are represented by X symbols on these figures, and are generally consistent

with the LC50s estimated using Hyalella equivalents. The overall consistency of observed

LC50s with those estimated from Hyalella equivalents supports the accuracy of the combined

SSDs as applied to individual AIs. Due to the small number of species with acute toxicity data

for some AIs, derivation of SSDs from data for those AIs alone would have been impossible, but

the combined SSD allows HC5s to be estimated for all AIs and used for risk characterization.

4 Discussion The Hyalella equivalent HC5 values can be used to estimate the HC5 for a given AI (in µg/L)

from the H. azteca LC50 (in µg/L) for that AI. For example, for bifenthrin, the observed LC50

for H. azteca is 0.0005 µg/L; thus the arthropod HC5 for that AI (based on tests with measured

concentrations only) is estimated to be 0.0024 µg/L (i.e., 4.8 x 0.0005) and the fish HC5 is

Page 20: Derivation of Combined Species Sensitivity Distributions for Acute … · 2019. 5. 20. · Synthetic pyrethroids are a class of insecticides registered for agricultural, residential,

estimated to be 0.128 μg/L. HC5 values derived for all AIs from the combined SSDs are shown

in Table 4.

The HC5 values are useful for calculating Risk Quotients (EPA 2004) in screening-level risk

assessments of individual AIs. The combined pyrethroid SSDs can also be used to derive full

SSDs for a given AI (as shown for arthropods in Figure 4), which can be integrated with

estimated exposure distributions to construct Joint Probability Curves (ECOFRAM 1999) for

refined risk characterization of individual AIs.

The HC5 for all animals is the basis for water quality standards in many countries (ANZECC

2000; CCME 2007; Crommentuijn et al. 2000; ECB 2003; RIVM 2001; Stephen et al. 1985).

Since many chemicals have been tested with relatively few animal species, some regulatory

schemes (e.g. Stephen et al. 1985) have established specific criteria for inclusion of species from

various taxonomic groups to ensure that the resulting water quality standards are broadly

protective. In the case of pyrethroids, arthropods are substantially more sensitive than other

animal taxa, and pooling all animals would result in a bimodal SSD that represents neither

arthropods nor other taxa. The resulting HC5 for all animals would be distorted by the relative

numbers of species in each taxon, and would not be a reliable indicator of the sensitivity of a

whole animal community. Given the large difference in sensitivity between arthropods and other

taxa, the HC5 for the most sensitive taxon would be a more appropriate basis for water quality

criteria.

The combined SSDs offer significant benefits for risk assessment of pyrethroids. Because the

combined SSDs include data for 36 arthropod species (93 species if nominal tests are included)

and 24 fish species (48 species if nominal tests are included), they provide a much broader

taxonomic representation than SSDs using data for single AIs alone. Moreover, the large

numbers of species included in the combined SSDs confer greater statistical precision in HC5

estimation. The combined SSDs also enable a broadly representive, statistically rigorous analysis

of AIs such as cyfluthrin, esfenvalerate, and fenpropathrin for which relatively few toxicity data

are available.

The similarity of toxicity profiles across AIs and the existence of a highly consistent dataset for

H. azteca makes this approach especially useful for pyrethroids, but a similar approach could be

applied to other classes of pesticides.

5 Conclusions The extensive aquatic toxicity database for 9 pyrethroids provides the basis for a combined

pyrethroid SSD based on Hyalella equivalents. The resulting SSDs, incorporating acute toxicity

data for large numbers of arthropod and fish species, can be used to estimate the HC5 for a given

AI from the observed H. azteca LC50 for that AI. The combined SSDs are more taxonomically

representative and statistically precise than SSDs based on the more limited datasets for

individual pyrethroid AIs. HC5 values calculated for individual AIs based on the combined SSDs

are useful for risk assessment and could be used in derivation of water quality criteria.

Appendix A. Criteria for Data Evaluation, Key Value selection, and Species Final Value selection

Data Evaluation

Each open-literature publication and company report was assigned a score of Acceptable (A),

Qualified (Q), or Unusable (U) according to criteria described below. Studies rated A met all

evaluation criteria. Studies rated Q were incomplete or unsatisfactory in some aspects, but met

the minimum criteria for the toxicity database. Most of the studies rated U were scientifically

sound but did not provide results for standard test endpoints and were therefore inconsistent with

the objectives of the database. Some studies were rated U based on reliability criteria described

below. Results from studies rated U were not incorporated into the database.

If a publication contained data on more than one study, each study was evaluated individually

according to the same criteria. Occasionally, studies within a single publication or report

received different ratings.

The criteria for rating each study consisted of the following 13 items:

1. Is the document the primary source for the test result? Secondary sources were usually

rated U. In some cases, a secondary source included sufficient detail to be rated Q if the

primary source could not be found. Duplicate sources were rated U.

2. Were the adverse effects caused by a single stressor? Studies with chemical mixtures or

multiple stressors were rated U.

3. Were acceptable controls included? Studies without acceptable controls, or in which

control performance was considered unacceptable, were rated U. Studies in which

controls were included but control performance was not reported were rated Q.

4. Was the duration of exposure reported? If the exposure duration was not reported, the

study was rated U. Studies with pulsed exposures were also rated U.

5. Were the effects reported for relevant endpoints (growth, reproduction and mortality)?

Studies that did not report results for these endpoints were rated U. Endpoints not used in

the database included bioaccumulation, biochemical parameters, environmental fate,

histopathology, toxicokinetics, and responses measured in field studies.

6. Was more than one dose/concentration level used? Definitive toxicity values (LC50s,

EC50s, or NOECs) could not be derived from studies without multiple dose levels, and

such studies were rated U. “Limit tests” in which only a single, high exposure

concentration was tested and found to cause no effect, were accepted.

7. Was the test species reported? If the test species was not clearly identified, the study was

rated U.

8. Was the chemical form of test material reported? Studies in which the test material was

ambiguous (e.g., it could not be determined whether the test material was technical grade

active ingredient or a formulation) were rated U. Studies in which the reported exposure

concentrations or endpoints were ambiguous (active ingredient or formulation) were also

rated U. Studies in which the test material was incompletely identified but concentrations

of active ingredient were reported or could be derived were rated Q.

Page 26: Derivation of Combined Species Sensitivity Distributions for Acute … · 2019. 5. 20. · Synthetic pyrethroids are a class of insecticides registered for agricultural, residential,

9. Were the test concentrations measured? Studies in which pyrethroid concentrations in the

exposure media (or at least the stock solutions) were not confirmed by chemical analysis

were rated Q.

10. Was a dose-response relationship evident? If no dose-response relationship was evident,

definitive toxicity values (LC50s, EC50s, or NOECs) could not be derived, and such

studies were rated U (except for limit tests as discussed in Item 6).

11. Were the statistics that were used described? If statistical methods used to derive toxicity

values were not indicated, the study was rated Q.

12. Were the number of replicates per dose level and organisms per replicate reported?

Studies that failed to report these aspects of experimental design were rated Q. Studies

using fewer than 5 organisms per dose level were rated U.

13. Were the test conditions reported (e.g., pH, temperature, organism age, etc.)? Studies that

failed to report test conditions were rated Q.

Studies that satisfied all 13 rating criteria were rated A. Studies that did not satisfy all criteria but

did not trigger a rating of U for any criterion received a rating of Q, except when so much

information was lacking that the study was considered unreliable. Professional judgment was

used to determine whether so many criteria were unsatisfactory that a rating of U was warranted.

Studies that received a rating of U provided no usable information for the database because they

satisfied an insufficient number of the criteria or fit one of the rejection categories. The rating

that each study received, along with the scoring rationale, was noted on its respective rating form

and in the bibliography.

Selection of Key Values

After all reports and open literature publications were reviewed and evaluated, and data were

entered into the Pyrethroid Toxicity Database, a two-step process was used to select specific data

for use in risk assessment. In the first step, a single result from each usable study (i.e., a study

rated “A” or “Q” but not “U”) was designated as the Key Value for that study. In the second step

all Key Values for a species were examined, and a single Species Final Value (SFV) was

selected (as described in the next section).

A single Key Value was selected for each study. Many reports, especially in the open literature,

included results for multiple studies. The parameters identifying an individual study were:

1. test species;

2. test substance (either the technical grade active ingredient (TGAI), a specific formulation,

isomer or enantiomer, or a degradate); and

3. exposure medium type (water, water-sediment, or sediment).

If the database contained only a single record for an individual study, that result was designated

as the Key Value for the study. If the database contained multiple records for an individual study,

one record was selected as the Key Value. The criteria for selection of Key Values were as

follows:

1. Endpoint. The database included median lethal concentrations (LC50s), median effect

concentrations (EC50s), No Observed Effect Concentrations (NOECs), and Lowest

Report Number: PWG-ERA-21 Page 26 of 51

Page 27: Derivation of Combined Species Sensitivity Distributions for Acute … · 2019. 5. 20. · Synthetic pyrethroids are a class of insecticides registered for agricultural, residential,

Observed Effect Concentrations (LOECs) test endpoints. Multiple endpoints were

reported for some studies. When multiple endpoints were reported for acute toxicity tests,

the LC50 was selected as the Key Value, except for tests with cladocerans and algae,

where the EC50 was selected. NOECs were selected as Key Values for chronic tests. If

the preferred endpoint was not reported, an alternative endpoint was selected as the Key

Value.

2. Exposure duration. For acute tests (except with cladocerans), a 96-h exposure duration

was preferred. A 48-h exposure duration was preferred for cladocerans. If the result for

the preferred duration was not reported, then the longest reported duration less than the

preferred duration was selected. If no values less than the preferred duration were

reported, then the shortest reported duration was selected. For chronic tests, the longest

exposure duration was selected.

3. Measurement. Survival (mortality) was preferred for acute tests, except for cladocerans

and algae. Immobilization was the preferred measurement for acute tests with

cladocerans. Growth rate was the preferred measurement for tests with algae. If the

preferred measurement was not reported, an alternative measurement was selected as the

Key Value. For chronic tests, the most sensitive measurement (i.e., the measurement

associated with the lowest NOEC) was selected.

4. Life stage. When a study reported results for more than one life stage, the result for the

most sensitive life stage was selected as the Key Value.

5. Test conditions. When a study was repeated under different test conditions (e.g.,

temperature or dissolved organic carbon concentration), the result for the condition most

closely approximating standard test conditions (according to FIFRA or other test

guidelines) was selected as the Key Value.

6. Finite values. In a few cases, results for an individual study included “greater than” or

“less than” values as well as finite values. In these cases, the finite values were preferred.

If no finite value was reported, the largest “greater than” value or the smallest “less than”

value was selected as the Key Value.

7. Flow. A few studies used more than one exposure system (flow-through, renewal, or

static). In these cases, flow-through exposure was preferred, and renewal exposure was

second in preference.

8. Mixtures. A few studies involved pyrethroids in mixtures with synergists or other active

ingredients. Results for mixtures were rated “U” and, therefore, not selected as Key

Values.

These criteria were applied in the order shown above. An exception was made for chronic tests,

where criteria 3 and 4 were applied before criterion 2; that is, the most sensitive measured

endpoint or life stage was selected, even if that result was not associated with the longest

reported exposure duration. This is consistent with regulatory interpretation of NOEC values

from chronic tests.

If, after all criteria had been applied, multiple values remained (e.g., in studies with repeated

trials, or studies using test organisms from different populations), the geometric mean of the

remaining values was calculated. In these cases, a record was added to the database showing the

geometric mean, and this record was selected as the Key Value for the study.

Selection of Species Final Values

SFVs were selected from the Key Values for each species. A separate SFV was selected for the

TGAI, each formulation (or formulation type), each isomer or enantiomer, and each degradate.

SFVs were selected for each medium (water, water-sediment, and sediment). Both acute and

chronic SFVs were selected. In cases where only one Key Value existed for a given test

substance/medium/duration combination, that Key Value was identified as the SFV. When more

than one Key Value existed, one value was identified as the SFV. Criteria for selection of SFVs

are described below. To a large extent, these criteria were similar to those used for selection of

Key Values.

1. Endpoint. When multiple Key Values existed for acute toxicity, an LC50 was selected as

the SFV, except for cladocerans and algae, where an EC50 was selected. NOECs were

selected as SFVs for chronic toxicity. If the Key Values did not include the preferred

endpoint, an alternative endpoint was selected as the SFV.

2. Exposure duration. For acute toxicity (except with cladocerans), a 96-h Key Value was

preferred. A 48-h Key Value was preferred for cladocerans. If the Key Values did not

include the preferred exposure duration, then the longest duration less than the preferred

duration was selected. If no values less than the preferred duration were available, then

the shortest duration was selected. For chronic tests, the longest exposure duration was

selected.

3. Flow. Key Values representing flow-through exposure were preferred. Key Values from

renewal exposure systems were the second preference. If no flow-through or renewal Key

Values existed, a Key Value from a static test was accepted as the SFV.

4. Measured concentrations. Key Values representing studies in which exposure

concentrations were analytically confirmed were preferred.

5. Fish chronic toxicity tests. Full life-cycle tests were preferred over early life stage tests

for fish because they are of longer duration and include all aspects of the fish life cycle.

6. Acute tests with mollusks. Embryo-larval tests were preferred over shell deposition tests

for mollusks to reflect EPA’s presumption that embryo-larval tests are more sensitive

than shell deposition tests.

7. Finite values. When Key Values included “greater than” or “less than” values as well as

finite values, the finite values were preferred. If no Key Value was a finite value, the

largest “greater than” value or the smallest “less than” value was selected.

8. Relevant test conditions. If Key Values existed for more than one test condition, the

condition considered most similar to standard test conditions or relevant to natural

conditions was selected.

These criteria were applied in the order shown above. When two or more Key Values met the

above criteria equally, the studies from which the Key Values were derived were re-examined to
