| Beryllium sulfate concentration | Mean Stimulation Index* | Reference | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Day 3 | Day 4 | Day 6 | ||
| 1 × 10−4 M | QNS | 7.0 | QNS | < 2.3 |
| 1 × 10−5 M | QNS | 3.1 | QNS | < 2.3 |
| 1 × 10−6 M | QNS | 1.8 | QNS | < 2.3 |
Note: QNS = quantity not sufficient.
↵* Positive result (bold) is 2 or more Mean Stimulation Index values greater than at least 2.3.
