Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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:
0.59 mg/m³
Most sensitive endpoint:
developmental toxicity / teratogenicity
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:
100 mg/kg bw/day
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEC
Value:
88.16 mg/m³
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

A modification of the dose descriptor starting point (oral to inhalation) was conducted. It is assumed as a worst case assumption that the oral absorption rate is 50% of that of the inhalation absorption.

The corrected dose descriptor (NOAEC) for inhalation was calculated in accordance with the ECHA

Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment, Chapter R.8: Characterisation of dose [concentration]-response for human health.

The conversion of an oral rat NOAEL into a corrected inhalatory NOAEC to assess human inhalatory

exposure was performed using the modification of starting point equation as given in Figure R. 8-3 (see below) for workers (in the case of 8 hour exposure/day).

Default parameters for rats and humans (for 8 hour exposure) were used for the modification of starting point under the allometric scaling principle as given in Table R. 8-2 of the above ECHA guidance.

Conversion of an oral rate N(L)OAEL into a correct inhalatory N(L)OAEC to assess human inhalatory

exposure:

For workers (in case of 8h exposure/day):

Corrected inhalatory N(L)OAEC = oral N(L)OAEL x (1 / sRVrat) x (ABSoral-rat / ABSinh-human) x

(sRVhuman / wRV)

Corrected inhalatory N(L)OAEC= 100 mg/kg bw/day x (1 / 0.38 m3/kg/d) x (0.5) x (6.7 m3(8h) / 10

m3(8h)) = 88.16 mg/m3

Where:

ABS: Absorption

sRV: standard Respiratory Volume

wRV: worker Respiratory Volume (light activity)

Default parametrs:

sRVrat (8 h): 0.38m3/kg bw

sRVhuman (8 h): 6.7 m3/ person

6
Justification:
Default for subacute to chronic studies (OECD 421 study assessed as subacute study as most conservative value)
AF for interspecies differences (allometric scaling):
1
Justification:
AF for allometric scaling not required as the differences in allometry (respiration rate and rate to human body sizes) were considered in the conversion from oral to inhalation starting point.
AF for other interspecies differences:
2.5
Justification:
Default AF for remaining interspecies differences.
AF for intraspecies differences:
5
Justification:
Default AF for worker population
AF for the quality of the whole database:
1
Justification:
Quality of data considered to be reliable.
AF for remaining uncertainties:
2
Justification:
An additional AF of 2 has been applied as the OECD 421 study (providing the developmental toxicity data) has been read-across from a structurally similar analogue substance. An additional AF has been considered applicable based on any minor potential differences between the substances.

Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

A modification of the dose descriptor starting point (oral to inhalation) was conducted. It is assumed asa worst case assumption that the oral absorption rate is 50% of that of the inhalation absorption.

The corrected dose descriptor (NOAEC) for inhalation was calculated in accordance with the ECHA

Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment, Chapter R.8: Characterisation of dose [concentration]-response for human health.

The conversion of an oral rat NOAEL into a corrected inhalatory NOAEC to assess human inhalatory

exposure was performed using the modification of starting point equation as given in Figure R. 8-3 (see below) for general population (in the case of 24 hour exposure/day).

Default parameters for rats and humans (for 24 hour exposure) were used for the modification of starting point under the allometric scaling principle as given in Table R. 8-2 of the above ECHA guidance.

Conversion of an oral rate N(L)OAEL into a correct inhalatory N(L)OAEC to assess human inhalatory

exposure:

For general population (in case of 24h exposure/day):

Corrected inhalatory N(L)OAEC = oral N(L)OAEL x (1 / sRVrat) x (ABSoral-rat / ABSinh-human)

Corrected inhalatory N(L)OAEC= 100 mg/kg bw/day x (1 / 1.15 m3/kg/d) x (0.5) = 43.49 mg/m3

ABS: Absorption
