Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

repeated dose toxicity
Route of original study:
Dermal

ECHA REACH Guidance
Overall assessment factor (AF):
225
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEC
Value:
176 mg/m³
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:
Convert dermal NOAEL to oral NOAEL: 1000 mg/kg/day x (10% dermal absorption/50% oral absorption) = 200 mg/kg/day. Convert oral NOAEL to inhalation NOAEC: 200 mg/kg/day x [1/0.38 x 50/100 x 6.7/10] = 176 mg/m3

6
Justification:
Extrapolation from subacute study to chronic exposure value in line with Table R.8-5 of Chapter R.8 of Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment
Justification:
not applicable for inhalation (differences in species addressed in calculation of dose descriptor starting point.)

Justification:
Default value in line with Section R.8.4.3.1 of Chapter R.8 of Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment.

AF for remaining uncertainties:
1

Workers - Hazard for the eyes

Local effects

Hazard assessment conclusion:
no hazard identified

Additional information - workers

The substance is not acutely toxic following oral administration or dermal application and therefore acute DNELs for systemic effects are not required. The substance is not irritating to the skin or the eye and did not show any sensitising potential. DNELs for local effects on skin and respiratory system are not required.

Based on the available studies used to support the registration, the substance is considered to not be genotoxic.

In a 28-day dermal toxicity study only local effects but no adverse effects were observed for systemic toxicity and the NOAEL for systemic effects was set at the limit dose of 1000 mg/kg bw/day.

This value was chosen as the starting point for systemic DNELs calculation.

General Population - Hazard via inhalation route
