I am sending this in because of the 100% accurate reference from the UK.

Seems it is important to know where the "DL50" bit goes....yes, I had to search to find out myself :-)

17 hrs
Reference: LD 50 AND LC 50

Reference information:
the concentration of the substance that would kill 50% of the test animals in a given time (usually four hours) is the LC50 value

LD stands for "Lethal Dose". LD50 is the amount of a material, given all at once, which causes the death of 50% (one half) of a group of test animals. The LD50 is one way to measure the short-term poisoning potential (acute toxicity) of a material.
