  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-007042",
  "term": "Maximum acceptable toxicant concentration",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "The highest concentration of a toxicant in an environmental medium that causes no unacceptable effect on a population of organisms after prolonged exposure. It is derived from chronic toxicity tests and represents a threshold below which adverse effects are unlikely. This value is often used in regulatory contexts for environmental protection.",
