From: Robert J. Cavanaugh 999-4385 Subject: RE: HP in Shaving Product See the attached note from Gerry Kennedy on C-8 levels from exposure to shaving cream. There is one error in them:the concentration of C-8 is 20 ppm in the MP-1600, not in the shaving gel. The anticipated level of MP-1660 is 1% in Edge, thus Gerry's numbers are high by 100X. In spite of this, I agree with his conclusion that this is a risky area. A dally application rate of 2 micrograms is still one third of the CEG.
Another way to look at this is to calculate the steady state level of C-8 in the blood. At equilibrium, 2 micrograms will be absorbed per day and 2 micrograms will be eliminated. The half life of C-8 in the body is about 3 years. The first order rate equation is Ln(Cl/C2) -kt where C is the concentration, k is the rate constant and t is time. For the half life, C1/C2 - 2 and k can then be calculated to be 0.000633/day. From this, you can calculate that to eliminate 2 micrograms per day, there must be 3160 micrograms present. In 5 Kg of blood, this would be 0.63 ppm. This is starting to get a little close to the level which concern us. I believe these are a few ppm (GERRY: is this correct?).
My recommendation is to stay away from this application. We're getting near the concern limit on C-8. PTFE may be an excellent dry lubricant but I question how well it will working in a gel which is already lubricated.
There may be some applications where skin contact would be acceptable. One would be in the PTFE/Krytox grease as a nerve agent repellant. This is not a repeated use application and I would prefer to take my chances with 2 micrograms of C-8 rather than a gram of Sarin.
Let me know your thoughts on this as we have to get back to First Brands. *** Forwarding note from BUXTONLW--ISCDCVM1 11/03/94 16:40 *** To: CAVANARJ--ISCDCVM1 Robert J. Cavanaug

Bob, Attached is a calculation of potential exposure level to C-8 based on
your initial assumptions. Note the Gerry also assumes 100% transfer at each step.
Overall, this does not look like a good use for this product.
Let me know if you have further questions..... Bill. *** Forwarding note from KENNEDY --HSKVAX 10/24/94 09:10 ***

HERE IS MY SAMPLE CALCULATION WHICH I THINK SUGGESTS THAT WE MOVE SLOWLY INTO THIS APPLICATION.
