Workers - Hazard via inhalation route

Systemic effects

Long term exposure
Hazard assessment conclusion:
DNEL (Derived No Effect Level)
Value:
29.4 mg/m³
Most sensitive endpoint:
repeated dose toxicity
Route of original study:
Oral
DNEL related information
DNEL derivation method:
ECHA REACH Guidance
Dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Value:
1 000 mg/kg bw/day
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEC
Value:
881.6 mg/m³
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

The original study is reliable without restrictions.

The route to route extrapolation was performed by applying the equation as cited in Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment, Chapter R.8 (by ECHA) with all recommended assessment factors.

Justification:
NOAEL is the starting point for DNEL derivation. According to Guidance on information Chapter R.8, p. 30, the assessment factor is 1.
Justification:
according to Guidance on information Chapter R.8, Table 8-5, p. 29
Justification:
interspecies difference is included in the calculation by correcting the respiratory volumes of rat and man (for details refer to "explanation for hazard conclusion")
Justification:
interspecies difference is included in the calculation by correcting the respiratory volumes of rat and man (for details refer to "explanation for hazard conclusion")
Justification:
according to Guidance on information Chapter R.8, Table 8-6, p. 32
Justification:
Original study is reliable without restriction
Justification:
No adverse effects were observed in this study up to 1000 mg/kg bw/day the highest dose tested. The reported changes were considered to be only of adaptive nature.

The substance is classified for human health as skin irritant (H315: Causes skin irritation.) and skin sensitiser Cat. 1B (H317: May cause an allergic skin reaction.).No DNEL for systemic effects is derived since the skin irritant and sensitising properties of the substance determine the hazard and risk profile. Otherwise, dermal systemic exposure would have to be calculated, which would then assume (even if gloves are worn) some dermal exposure to the substance. This cannot reflect the real situation since the skin would suffer from the irritant and sensitising effects. Rather than calculating some dermal exposure potentially leading to systemic effects and discounting these results afterwards on the basis of the irritant and sensitising effects, it is more appropriate to base the dermal assessment entirely on the qualitative risk characterisation for an irritant and sensitizing substance. Based on the classification (Skin Sensitising Cat. 1B) and the hazard statement a medium hazard band for the qualitative assessment is assumed.
