Acute, subchronic and chronic studies are available for the oral route of exposure, the most relevant
NOAEC is from the chronic study (Hodge 1964) which has the highest NOAEC below the lowest LOAEC.
Only one dermal toxicity study is available (Bullock CH 1971), the study only provides an LD50and lacks
data required to derive a meaningful NOAEL. The dermal DNEL will therefore be derived by route to route
extrapolation from the chronic oral study (Hodge 1964).
One acute inhalation toxicity study is available (Jackson GC 1988), the study only provides an LD50and
lacks data required to derive a meaningful NOAEL. The inhalation DNEL will therefore be derived by route
to route extrapolation from the chronic oral study (Hodge 1964).

Oral exposure:
Assessment factors for inter and intra species, duration, dose response and quality of data are applied to
the chronic toxicity data.
An assessment factor of 4 is used to correct for differences in metabolic rate per body weight and an
assessment factor of 2.5 (default) for remaining interspecies differences.
A default assessment factor of 10 is applied for intra species differences.
An assessment factor of 1 is applied for exposure duration as no exposure extrapolation is required.
An assessment factor of 3 is applied for the dose response to account for the poor quality of the study from
which the NOAEL is derived
The total assessment factor applied is obtained by multiplication of all the assessment factors giving an
overall assessment factor of 300
Dermal exposure:
The dermal DNEL is derived from the chronic oral study and therefore the same assessment factors apply
with an additional factor of 2 to account for route to route extrapolation.
The total assessment factor applied is therefore 600
Inhalation exposure:
The inhalation DNEL is derived from the chronic oral study and therefore the same assessment factors
apply with an additional factor of 2 to account for route to route extrapolation.
The total assessment factor applied is therefore 600.
