Workers - Hazard for the eyes
Additional information - workers
Only long term exposure values for worker and general population were calculated, because no concrete values (like NOAEL, LOAEL etc) are available from acute or irritation studies. The study design of the test conducted assessing the acute and local toxicity of dioctadecylether does not allow in general the derivation of local or acute DNEL, as most of the test were, for example, conducted as limit tests due to animal welfare. In some cases the result of an acute test allows to derive local or acute thresholds. If this is the case the values were entered otherwise this justification is to apply.
For long term effects a valid repeated dose animal studies is available to derive DNEL values.The NOAEL was established to be 1000 mg/kg bw.
