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.

Additional information - workers

Though it is not conclusive if inhalation is a likely route of exposure to workers, the corresponding DNEL has been derived.

As there is no quantitative data available for dermal absorption of test article, a worst case scenario is assumed in which the absorption rate from dermal route is considered to be same as oral route, and for both routes assumed to be 100%.

As basis for DNEL derivation the result from a 28 -day oral toxicity study with rats was used, performed by Chemicals Evaluation and Research Institute, Japan, Hita Laboratory in 2014. The study has been completed in the course of registration to the US EPA.

This study was a confirmatory test based on previous same 28-day oral study (study number B11-0836) in which toxic effect was observed at 25 mg/kg/day dosage. The aim was to confirm the presence or absence of the toxic effects at 30 mg/kg/day and reproducibility of the test results.

The confirmatory study was carried out according to OECD guideline and GLP principles. Control: CD(SD) rats were orally administrated at doses of 0, 30, and 120 mg/kg/day for 28 consecutive days. The NOAEL of test item was 30 mg/kg/day under the conditions tested since adverse effects were not noted in the 30 mg/kg/day group.

Based on the above description, the basis for the DNEL therefore is this oral NOAEL (30 mg/kg bw/day), and NOAELcorr for the dermal route is still 30 mg/kg.bw/day. According to ECHA guidance document the oral NOAEL is converted to an inhalative NOAECWorker by dividing through 0.38 m3/kg resulting in a NOAEC of 78.95 mg/m3.
