Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Workers - Hazard via inhalation route

Systemic effects

Long term exposure
Hazard assessment conclusion:
DNEL (Derived No Effect Level)
Value:
49.33 µg/m³
Most sensitive endpoint:
repeated dose toxicity
Route of original study:
Oral
DNEL related information
DNEL derivation method:
ECHA REACH Guidance
Overall assessment factor (AF):
75
Dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Value:
3 mg/kg bw/day
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEC
Value:
3.7 mg/m³
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

The NOAEL from the study according to OECD Guideline 422 has been modified accounting for the standard respiratory volume for rats (8 h) of 0.38 m3/kg bw, the standard respiratory volume for human under normal conditions (8 h) of 6.7 m3/person and under light activity of 10 m3/person (default weight of 70 kg) and absorption (assumption according to ECHA Guidance R.8: 50% absorbed oral, 100 % absorbed via inhalation; factor: 1/2). In addition, since the study is performed at 7 days/week, while the exposure of workers is 5 days/week, the NOAEL is also corrected by the factor of 1.4 (7/5). The resulting corrected NOAEC is the following:


3 mg/kg bw/day*(1/0.38)*(6.7/10)*(1/2)*1.4 = 3.7 mg/m3

Dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Value:
3 mg/kg bw/day
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Value:
8.4 mg/kg bw/day
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

The NOAEL from the study according to OECD Guideline 422 has been modified accounting for the difference in exposure for workers and test animals and the absorption rates. Since the study is performed at 7 days/week, while the exposure of workers is 5 days/week, the NOAEL is corrected by the factor of 1.4 (7/5). The dermal absorption considered to be 50% (please refer to Section 7.1). The resulting corrected NOAEL is the following:


3 mg/kg bw/day * (100%/50%) * 1.4 = 8.4 mg/kg bw/day

NOAEC
Value:
1.3 mg/m³
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

The NOAEL from the study according to OECD Guideline 422 has been modified accounting for the standard respiratory volume for rats (24 h) of 1.15 m³/kg bw and the oral and inhalative absorption (assumption according to ECHA Guidance R.8: 50% absorbed oral, 100 % absorbed via inhalation; factor: 1/2). The resulting corrected NOAEC is the following:


3 mg/kg bw/day*(1/1.15)*(1/2) = 1.3 mg/m³
