Results and discussion

Main ADME resultsopen allclose all
Type:
absorption
Results:
A moderate absorption potential is considered for oral route of exposure. A limited absorption potential is predicted for dermal and inhalation routes of exposure.
Type:
distribution
Results:
If absorbed, the substance is expected to be distributed into intravasal compartment.
Type:
metabolism
Results:
No extensive metabolism is expected for the chelating agents and polycondensation products.
Type:
excretion
Results:
The target substance is expected to be excreted via the urine or via the bile.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
O,o-Fe(Na)EDDHA has low absorption potential via all exposure routes. If absorbed, it is expected to be distributed predominantly in intravasal compartment. The substance is not expected to be metabolised and will be excreted mainly unchanged via the faeces or via the urine.
Executive summary:

O,o-Fe(Na)EDDHA is expected to be moderately absorbed after oral exposure, based on its high water solubility and its insolubility in n-octanol. Concerning the absorption after exposure via inhalation, as the chemical is considered to have a low vapour pressure, is highly hydrophilic, insoluble in n-octanol, and has a rather high molecular weight, it is clear, that the substance is poorly available for inhalation and will not be absorbed significantly. The substance is also not expected to be absorbed following dermal exposure into the stratum corneum and into the epidermis, due to its molecular weight and its high water solubility. Concerning its distribution in the body the substance is expected to be distributed mainly in the intravasal compartment, due to its high water solubility. The substance does not indicate a significant potential for accumulation. O,o-Fe(Na)EDDHA is expected not to be significantly metabolised but to be eliminated unchanged via urine and bile.
