Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Additional information - workers

1. Identification of relevant dose descriptor

For the derivation of the DNELs, the 90-Day oral toxicity study in rats was qualified as the most relevant study. The dose descriptor chosen was the NOAEL of 427 mg/kg/day.

2. Mode of action

No non-threshold mode of action is associated with the test substance. In particular, the test substance has no genotoxic potential.

3. Correction of dose descriptor

NOAEL (oral) is converted into a NOAEL(corrected)in accordance toGuidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment, Chapter R.8: Characterization of dose[concentration]-response for human health, ECHA, May 2008.

Workers: NOAEL (oral) = 427 mg/kg bw =>NOAEL(corrected)= 753 mg/m3

4. Application of assessment factors

The following assessment factors were chosen: A correction for differences in metabolic rate per body weight was made by an allometric scaling factor of 4 (except for inhalation), remaining differences account for 2.5. Intraspecies differences account for a factor of 5. For exposure duration a factor of 2 is employed. Overall, assessment factors of 100 and 25 were employed for oral/dermal and inhalation route, respectively.

5.Selection of the critical DNEL(s)/DMELs and/or qualitative/semi-quantitative descriptor for critical health effects

 

DNEL- acute, inhalation, systemic:The acute DNELs could not be calculated directly but the long-term DNELs are sufficient to ensure that acute effects do not occur, provided high-peak acute exposure (especially for inhalation) can be avoided.

DNEL- acute, inhalation, local:

Not quantifiable.

DNEL- acute, dermal, systemic: The acute DNELs could not be calculated directly but the long-term DNELs are sufficient to ensure that acute effects do not occur, provided high-peak acute exposure can be avoided.

DNEL- acute, dermal, local:

Not quantifiable

DNEL- long-term, inhalation, local:

Not quantifiable.

 DNEL- long-term, inhalation, systemic:

NOAEL (corrected) / Sum of assessment factors applicable

753 mg/m3 /25 = 30 mg/m3

DNEL- long-term, dermal, systemic:

NOAEL (oral) / Sum of assessment factors applicable

427 mg/kg bw / 100 = 4.3 mg/kg bw

The dermal route is typically covered by oral route information in the absence of data for this administration route.

DNEL- long-term, dermal, local:

Not quantifiable and not considered applicable.
