Default Toxicity

Hello everybody,

I am translating a technical text about chemicals and I have really encountered difficulties to translate this sentence into English: "Tóxico por cualquier vía de exposición". I've thought about "toxic at any exposure" but it does not mean exactly the same. Could anyone help me? Thanks a million!

My suggestion:

"Tóxico por cualquier vía de exposición" = "Toxic in all types of exposure"

I guess I will have to agree with ed freire's opinion. It makes sense.

Good Luck,
