Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Hazard assessment conclusion:
DNEL (Derived No Effect Level)
Value:
26.9 mg/m³

Oral
DNEL related information

ECHA REACH Guidance
Overall assessment factor (AF):
25
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEC
Value:
672.6 mg/m³
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

There is no repeated dose inhalation data. Therefore the repeated dose oral data has been used.

Justification:
Sub-chronic study

Workers - Hazard via dermal route

Systemic effects

Long term exposure
Hazard assessment conclusion:
DNEL (Derived No Effect Level)
Value:
136.25 mg/kg bw/day
Most sensitive endpoint:
repeated dose toxicity
Route of original study:
Oral
DNEL related information
DNEL derivation method:
ECHA REACH Guidance
Overall assessment factor (AF):
100
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Value:
13 625 mg/kg bw/day
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

The database of available repeat dose dermal studies includes two sub-chronic 90 day studies as well as two chronic/carcinogenicity studies, conducted in both rats and mice. These studies were limited in design such that not all important endpoints were investigated. These studies found only local effects based on epidermal hyperplasia and no systemic toxicity. So for the purpose of calculating a DNEL value for systemic effects, the oral NOAEL has been used.

Workers - Hazard for the eyes

Local effects

Hazard assessment conclusion:
low hazard (no threshold derived)

Additional information - workers

Although a good quality dermal toxicity study is available, for the derivation of systemic DNEL,s the study with oral exposure will be used. In the dermal studies only local effects have been observed. The derivation of the inhalation DNELs is also based on the oral study.

Based on the acute toxicity data, DNELs do not need to be derived for acute effects for the worker population since the hydrotropes have a low potential for acute toxicity.

Although a good quality dermal toxicity study is available, for the derivation of systemic DNELs studies with oral exposure will be used. In the dermal studies only local effects have been observed. The derivation of the inhalation DNELs is also based on the oral study.

Based on the acute toxicity data, DNELs do not need to be derived for acute effects for the worker population since the hydrotropes have a low potential for acute toxicity.
