Here are the doses required to cause death in 50% of a test population:

ORL means oral dose, MAM is an unspecified mammal, probably a rabbit. RAT is a rat, MUS is a mouse, IPR means intraperitoneal dose (inside the stomach lining).

The dosages are in milligrams, so 6500 mg PER KILO will cause death in a mammal...that is 6.5 grams you would have to eat! Toxicology Toxicity data

ORL-MAM LD50 6500 mg kg-1

ORL-RAT LD50 3250 mg kg-1

ORL-MUS LD50 2400 mg kg-1

IPR-MUS LD50 150 mg kg-1

ORL-RBT LD50 2230 mg kg-1

ORL-GPG LD50 4000 mg kg-1

From what I've read and been told the Polycarbonate materials we use every day are perfectly safe to use. IF you microwave your food or drink in these, day after day after day, then you MIGHT leach out a mg or two in about a year...you'll breath in more carcinogens by walking down the street...

The dosages are in milligrams, so 6500 mg PER KILO will cause death in a mammal...that is 6.5 grams you would have to eat!

Which means that a 150# person would have to eat just under a POUND of it, 433 Grams.

This is more likely just a Trial Lawyer Wish, like the "Poison Teflon Monomer" ploy we heard about for the last two years.

Everyone wants to have the next Asbestos lawsuit.
