Air conditioning is a suspected source of FC-114 contamination in submarines. SUMMARY OF TOXICITY DATA EFFECTS ON HUMANS Human exposures to F C-114 at up to 20,000 ppm have shown it to be poorly absorbed and rapidly excreted.

In the dogs, slight hematologic changes were observed, but the measures in question returned to normal 15-17 d after exposure; no gross pathologic changes were seen. No effects were seen in dogs, cats, guinea pigs, or rats exposed at 100,000 ppm for 3.5 h per exposure for 20 exposures (Scholl, 1962~.

In the absence of long-term exposure data, it appears appropriate to recommend a CEL of 100 ppm for 90 d. The present Committee's recommended EELs and CEL for F C-114 and the limits proposed in 1966 are shown below.
