Most sensitive endpoint:

Route of original study:
Oral
DNEL related information
DNEL derivation method:
ECHA REACH Guidance
Overall assessment factor (AF):
30
Dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

Dermal.

Starting point. Provisional results from 28-day oral study indicate effects seen at 75, 150 and 300 mg/kg bw/day but effects not reported for low dose, 37.5 mg/kg bw/day. Therefore, as a starting point the 37.5 mg/kg bw/day for the acute (28-day repeat dose) study is estimated to be the oral NOAEL.

There are no repeat dose data for dermal dose. For acute dosing, no signs of systemic poisoning were observed and no skin changes were seen when the substance was dermally dosed at 2000 mg/kg (single dose). However, signs of intoxication were seen when orally dosed at 200 mg/kg bw (single dose), 10-fold less, which would imply that the substance does not penetrate the skin to become bioavailable. As such, a dermal absorption factor of 10% is assumed.

Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

Dermal.

Starting point. Provisional results from 28-day oral study indicate effects seen at 75, 150 and 300 mg/kg bw/day but effects not reported for low dose, 37.5 mg/kg bw/day. Therefore, as a starting point the 37.5 mg/kg bw/day for the acute (28-day repeat dose) study is estimated to be the oral NOAEL.

There are no repeat dose data for dermal dose. For acute dosing, no signs of systemic poisoning were observed and no skin changes were seen when the substance was dermally dosed at 2000 mg/kg (single dose). However, signs of intoxication were seen when orally dosed at 200 mg/kg bw (single dose), 10-fold less, which would imply that the substance does not penetrate the skin to become bioavailable.

Starting point. There was an NOAEL reported of 5 mg/kg bw/day from a 14-day repeat dose study as effects were noted at 50 mg/kg bw/day.

Provisional results from 28-day study indicate effects seen at 75, 150 and 300 mg/kg bw/day but effects not reported for low dose, 37.5 mg/kg bw/day. Therefore, as a starting point the 37.5 mg/kg bw/day for the acute (28-day repeat dose) study is estimated to be the NOAEL.
