Additional information - workers

Considering very low vapor pressure (4.8E-3 Pa at 20 °C) and low water solubility (125 µg/ml), the inhalation route is not considered further as exposure scenarios for the test article do not indicate inhalative exposure to be the likely route of exposure to workers in regular process. Therefore, a worst case scenario is assumed in which the inhalation absorption is considered to be the same as that of the oral absorption.

Since the water solubility is far below 1 mg/L (125 µg/ml) and the log POW values is outside the range [-1, 4], dermal uptake is likely to be low. There is no quantitative data available for dermal adsorption of test material, thus, a default value of dermal absorption rate is proposed to be 10%. (i.e. the absorption rate from dermal is assumed to be one-tenth that of oral route).

NOAEL of 11 mg/kg/day resulted from the available sub-acute oral study is selected as the basis of DNEL calculation in light of the whole toxicity database. NOAELcorr for the dermal route is 110 mg/kg.bw/day. According to ECHA guidance document the oral NOAEL is converted to an inhalative NOAECworker resulting in a NOAEC of 19.39 mg/m3 (NOAELoral / 0.38 m3/kg × 6.7 m3 (8h)/10 m3 (8h)).

medium hazard (no threshold derived)

Additional information - General Population

Although the general population is not exposed to the test article as a chemical substance and consequently inhalative exposure to the substance is unlikely (vapor pressure: 4.8E-3 Pa at 20 °C), a DNEL has been derived. A worst case scenario is assumed in which the inhalation absorption is considered to be the same as that of the oral absorption.

Since the water solubility is far below 1 mg/L (125 µg/ml), log P values is outside the range [-1, 4], dermal uptake is likely to be low and there is no quantitative data available for dermal adsorption of test material, thus, a default value of dermal absorption rate is proposed to be 10%. (i.e. the absorption rate from dermal is assumed to be one-tenth that of oral route.)

According to ECHA guidance, it is usually assumed that a default assessment factor of 10 is sufficient to protect the larger part of the population, including e.g. children and the elderly.

In this case, NOAEL of 11 mg/kg/day resulted from the available sub-acute oral study is selected as the basis of DNEL calculation in light of the whole toxicity database. NOAELcorr for the dermal route is 110 mg/kg bw/day. According to ECHA guidance document the oral NOAEL is converted to an inhalative NOAECgeneral population by dividing through 1.15 m3/kg resulting in a NOAEC of 9.57 mg/m3.
