Formic acid edit

Formaldehyde is converted to formic acid.

The ref says "Both formaldehyde and formic acid are cytotoxic, but formaldehyde, with a half-life of 1 to 2 minutes, is present only transiently and does not accumulate. The formic acid molecule largely dissociates, releasing a hydrogen cation and a formate anion:"

Reference dose inconsistency edit

The page for methanol says that the reference dose is just 0.5 mg/kg, while this page says that it is 2mg/kg. Should this be edited? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:999:60:C382:ACC8:E536:894:AB6D (talk) 12:20, 1 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
