Any other information on results incl. tables

Data from in vitro or in vivo studies, which were designed to identify the toxicokinetic properties of the substance, are not available. This means, that absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME) can only be derived from available physical-chemical data.

 

To estimate the toxicokinetic properties of the substance the following information was considered (cited from IUCLID5 data file, section 4):

 

Parameter

Value used for CSR

Molecular weight

218,20 g/Mol

Melting point

Decomposition > 170°C

Boiling point

 

Density

Partition coefficient n-octanol/water

(log Pow)

Particle size

 

 

Absorption:

 

Based on above data the substance may be absorbed through the skin, but the low log Pow and the highly ionisation (pKa: 11.0004) indicate only limited dermal penetration potential (criteria for 100%: molecular weight < 500 g/Mol, -1 > log Pow< 4, see EUROPEAN COMMISSION HEALTH & CONSUMER PROTECTION DIRECTORATE-GENERAL: Guidance Document on Dermal AbsorptionSanco/222/2000 rev. 7 19 March 2004).

For exposure assessments a value of 10 % of absorption after dermal exposure may be appropriate. Due to the high pH and the impurity of Sodium hydroxide local effects to the skin are possible.

 

The uptake after direct inhalation of the substance may be of low relevance due to the fact that the substance is imported and placed on the market as aqueous solution.

Uptake by inhalation after evaporation of solvent is unlikely, the substance is a solid at room temperature and decomposes at elevated temperatures (above 170 °C) and has a very low vapour pressure.

 

The absorption after oral ingestion cannot be calculated due to lack of data; by default an absorption of 100 % may be appropriate, until specific data will be available, although such a high absorption is rather unlikely.

 

Distribution:

 

Due to the fact that the substance is hydrophilic no body compartment can be identified as target. It seems to be unlikely that the substance easily crosses blood-tissue-barriers. The high water solubility indicates a prevalence in aqueous organs like blood and in intercellular liquids.

Due to the low log Pow the substance has no potential for bioaccumulation.

 

Metabolism and Excretion:

  

Taking into account the structural elements of the formula it follows that Phase I and Phase II metabolic reactions can occur:

 

The terminal double bond is a typical target for Phase I reactions leading to an epoxide or diol.

The Hydroxyl-group is known for its typical reaction with Phase II Enzymes like sulfotransferases, acetyltransferases and for glucoronidation. The substance may also be subject to glutathione (GSH) conjugation.

 

All of these reactions will increase the high water solubility of the substance and improve urinary excretion, which may be the most relevant way of excretion for this substance.

 

But even without metabolic conversion, a renal excretion of the unchanged molecule is possible and likely.

 

Another relevant pathway for excretion may be by feces, especially for the fraction, which has not been absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract after oral uptake.

 

Excretion by exhalation does not seem to be relevant.

 

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Based on the physicochemical data the toxicokinetic properties of Sodium 3-(allyloxy)-2-hydroxypropanesulphonate (HAPS)
are assesssed.
Executive summary:

Absorption: for the oral route, an absorption of 100% is assumed,

for the inhalative and dermal route no relevant absorption is estimated and 10% are assumed.

Distribution: no information

Metabolism and Excretion: Phase I and Phase II reactions may occur.

Renale and fecal excretion are the prominent excretion routes.
