“…Since food and water are the most likely routes of exposure for humans, NaVO 3 was administered to the mice in drinking water ad libitum for 28 days (days 0 to 27). The drinking water concentrations were 0, 31.3, 62.5, 125, 250, and 500 ppm NaVO 3 , based on previously published work (Roberts et al, 2016;Waidyanatha et al, 2022), and confirmed by HPLC with ultraviolet detection at 282 nm. Palatability issues were observed in a previous DTT 14-day study in B6C3F1/N mice at 500, 1,000, and 2,000 ppm NaVO 3 , with overt toxicity at 1,000 and 2,000 ppm (Roberts et al, 2016).…”
