Additional information

Predictions are based on a weighted average consideration of the results for this substance and other substances within the category.  Results corrected for molecular weight differences. There is no data on the repeat dose  toxicity of this substance from studies to modern guidelines. A sub-chronic bridging study is being carried out on this substance followig a compliance check decision.

 

Justification for classification or non-classification

Repeat toxicity studies are available for source substances within the category by both the dermal and oral routes. (Inhalation is not considered relevant due to the very low vapour pressure of TEBE). For the oral route, classification is only required if significant toxic effects are seen at a dose of 100mg/kg or lower and 200mg/kg for the dermal route. From the available data it can be concluded with some confidence that TEGBE is not likely to meet these criteria and therefore classification is not required.

 

The necessity to apply EUH066 for the skin effects seen in the sub-acute dermal repeat dose studies should be considered. However, since the effects produced by the source substances are not considered sufficient to warrant applying this phrase, it is not considered appropriate to apply it to TEGBE.
