Description of the calculation of the NOAEC used for the worker, systemic effects, long-term DNEL for the inhalation route

NOAEL = 200 mg/kg bw/d       taken from the 28d-repeated dose toxicity study in rats (oral administration).

NOAEC = NOAEL (mg/kg bw/d) * (1/0.38 m3/kg bw) * (6.7 m3/10 m3)

NOAEC = 200 * (1/0.38) * (6.7/10) = 352.63 mg/m3

Description of the calculation of the NOAEL used for the worker, systemic effects, long-term DNEL for the dermal route

NOAEL = 200 mg/kg bw/d       taken from the 28d-repeated dose toxicity study in rats (oral administration).

corr. NOAEL = NOAEL (mg/kg bw/d) * Abs (oral, rat) / Abs (dermal, human)

with:

- Abs (oral, rat) = 100% according to ECHA's Guidance on Information Requirements and Chemical Safety Assessment, Section R7c.12.2.4

- Abs (dermal, human) = 80% as modeled according to the equation by Kroes (Food and Chemical Toxicology 45 (2007) 2533 -2562)

corr. NOAEL = 200*100/80 = 250 mg/kg bw/d
