Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Workers - Hazard via inhalation route

Systemic effects

Long term exposure
Hazard assessment conclusion:
DNEL (Derived No Effect Level)
Value:
12.7 µg/m³
Most sensitive endpoint:
repeated dose toxicity
Route of original study:
By inhalation
DNEL related information
DNEL derivation method:
ECHA REACH Guidance
Overall assessment factor (AF):
75
Dose descriptor starting point:
LOAEC
Value:
1.9 mg/m³
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
LOAEC
Value:
0.955 mg/m³
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

corrected LOAEC = 1.9 mg/m3 * (6h/d / 8h/d) * (6.7 m3/10 m3) = 0.955 mg/m3

The dose descriptor starting point is taken from a chronic (2 years) inhalatory study in rats similar to OECD Guideline 453 (NTP 2002): LOAEC = 1.9 mg/m3. This dose descriptor starting point is corrected by taking into account the differences between experimental and human exposure conditions: 8 h exposure/day for workers vs. 6 h exposure/day in the study; standard respiratory volume under light activity for workers vs. standard respiratory volume during 8 h. A corrected dose-descriptor starting point of 0.955 mg/m3 is derived.

Workers - Hazard via dermal route

Systemic effects

Long term exposure
Hazard assessment conclusion:
DNEL (Derived No Effect Level)
Value:
1.8 µg/kg bw/day
Most sensitive endpoint:
repeated dose toxicity
Route of original study:
By inhalation
DNEL related information
DNEL derivation method:
ECHA REACH Guidance
Overall assessment factor (AF):
300
Dose descriptor starting point:
LOAEL
Value:
1.9 mg/m³
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
LOAEL
Value:
0.542 mg/kg bw/day
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

corrected dermal LOAEL = inhalatory LOAEC * sRVrat (8 h) * (6h/d) / (8h/d)

corrected dermal LOAEL = 1.9 mg/m3 * 0.38 m3/kg bw * 0.75 = 0.542 mg/kg bw

The dose descriptor starting point is taken from a chronic (2 years) inhalatory study in rats similar to OECD Guideline 453 (NTP 2002): LOAEC = 1.9 mg/m3. This dose descriptor starting point is corrected by taking into account the differences between experimental and human exposure conditions: 8 h exposure/day for workers vs. 6 h exposure/day in the study; standard respiratory volume for rats during 8 h. A corrected dose-descriptor starting point of 0.542 mg/kg bw is derived.
