Registration Dossier
Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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.

Toxicological Summary
Administrative data
Workers - Hazard via inhalation route
Systemic effects
Long term exposure
- Hazard assessment conclusion:
- DNEL (Derived No Effect Level)
- Value:
- 10.58 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):
- 25
- Dose descriptor starting point:
- NOAEL
- Value:
- 300 mg/kg bw/day
- Modified dose descriptor starting point:
- NOAEC
- Value:
- 264.5 mg/m³
- Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:
The NOAEL of 300 mg/kg/day from a 90-day repeat dose oral study with rats was used. (There were no findings of toxicological significance in animals of either sex).
The worst case assumption is as folows for route-to-route extrapolation:
Corrected inhal N(L)OAEC = oral N(L)OAELrat * 1/0.38 * 1 * 6.7/10
Corrected inhal N(L)OAEC = oral N(L)OAELrat * 1/sRVrat * ABSoral-rat/ABSinhhuman * 6.7/10
Assuming a ABSoral-rat/ABSinh-rat of (0.5/1) 0.5 a dose descriptor of 264.5 mg/m3 was derived as the starting point.
- AF for dose response relationship:
- 1
- Justification:
- based on REACH guidance
- AF for differences in duration of exposure:
- 2
- Justification:
- based on REACH guidance for subacute to chronic
- Justification:
- not applicable when setting an inhalation DNEL based on REACH guidance
- AF for other interspecies differences:
- 2.5
- Justification:
- based on REACH guidance
- AF for intraspecies differences:
- 5
- Justification:
- based on REACH guidance
- AF for the quality of the whole database:
- 1
- Justification:
- based on REACH guidance
- AF for remaining uncertainties:
- 1
- Justification:
- based on REACH guidance

- Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:
The NOAEL of 300 mg/kg/day from a 90-day repeat dose oral study with rats was used. (There were no findings of toxicological significance in animals of either sex).
Oral absorption rat – oral/dermal absorption human: Assume 25% absorption based on the physical-chemical properties in accordance with Endpoint Specific Guidance Chapter 8 and 7c (R.7.12).
