Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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:
11.75 mg/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):
150
Dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Value:
1 000 mg/kg bw/day
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEC
Value:
1 763 mg/m³
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

Kinetics (metabolism, distribution and excretion) are considered to be similar for oral and inhalation intake in the absence of evidence of the opposite.

Starting point: NOAEL of 1000 mg/kg bw/day in a 28-day repeated dose toxicity study in rat.

Conversion of an oral NOAEL into a corrected NOAEC:

For workers (8h exposure/day), the corrected inhalatory NOAEC = oral NOAEL * 1/sRVrat * ABSoral-rat /ABSinhal-human * sRVhuman/wRV

= 1000 mg/kg bw/day * 1/0.38 m3/kg/8h * ABSoral-rat /ABSinhal-human * 6.7 m3(8h)/10 m3(8h)

= 1000 mg/kg bw/day * 1/0.38 m3/kg/8h * 100/100 * 6.7 m3 (8h)/10 m3(8h)

= 1000/0.38 * 1 * (6.7/10) = 1763 mg/m3.

With ABS: Absorption, sRV: Standard Respiratory Volume; wRV: Worker Respiratory Volume;

ABSoral-rat /ABSinhal-human= 100/100= 1, assuming no differences in inhalation absorption between rats and humans

300
Dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Value:
1 000 mg/kg bw/day
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEC
Value:
870 mg/m³
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

Kinetics (metabolism, distribution and excretion) are considered to be similar for oral and inhalation intake in the absence of evidence of the opposite.

For the general population (24h exposure/day), the corrected inhalatory NOAEC = oral NOAEC * 1/sRVrat * ABSoral-rat /ABSinhal-human

= 1000 mg/kg bw/day * 1/1.15 m3/kg * ABSoral-rat /ABSinhal-human

= 1000 * 1/1.15 m3/kg * 1 = 870 mg/m3

With ABS: Absorption, sRV: Standard Respiratory Volume; ABSoral-rat /ABSinhal-human= 100/100= 1, assuming no differences in inhalation absorption between rats and humans.
