Note: Where there is involved a combination of isotopes in
				  known amounts, the limit for the combination should be derived as follows:
				  Determine, for each isotope in the combination, the ratio between the quantity
				  present in the combination and the limit otherwise established for the specific
				  isotope when not in combination. The sum of the ratios for all the isotopes in
				  the combination may not exceed "1" that is, unity.
