Spacecraft Water Exposure Guidelines: Revision A

Abstract

The enclosed table lists official Spacecraft Water Exposure Guidelines (SWEGs), which are guideline values set by the NASA/JSC Toxicology Group in cooperation with the National Research Council Committee on Toxicology (NRCCOT) or through publication in the peer‐reviewed scientific literature. Based on documented guidance (NRC, 2000), NASA has established SWEGs for 30 chemical compounds that are particularly relevant to water systems on the International Space Station (ISS) as well as on spacecraft for deep‐space exploration. Summaries of these SWEGs are presented in tabular form as part of this publication.
