Oral
DNEL related information
DNEL derivation method:
ECHA REACH Guidance
Overall assessment factor (AF):
75
Dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Value:
100 mg/kg bw/day
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEC
Value:
246.8 mg/m³
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

The calculation of the DNEL is based on an oral NOAEL obtained from an OECD 421 study conducted with the registered substance (Wang, 2018).

To take into account the interspecies difference between the rat and human the no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) has to be corrected as follows according to ECHA guidance R.8 (2012):

Corrected starting point for the inhalative route for workers:

= NOAEL(oral) * (1/0.38 m³/kg bw/day) * (ABSoral-rat/ABSinh-human) * 6.7 m³ (8h) /10 m³ (8h) * (days of exposure per week in rats / days of exposure per week worker)

= 100 mg/kg bw/day * (1/0.38 m³/kg bw/day) * (1/1) * 0.67 m³ * (7/5) = 246.8 mg/m³.

Therefore, the corrected starting point for workers was 246.8 mg/m³ for inhalation.

(ABSoral-rat = oral absorption in rats, ABSinh-human = inhalation absorption rate in humans). In contrast to the recommendations of the ECHA Guidance, a factor of 1 (equal absorption of 100% assumed for the oral and the inhalative route for animals and humans) was included for the extrapolation from oral to inhalation absorption based on the following reason. As described in the toxicokinetic assessment an absorption via inhalation is quite unlikly and highest absorption rate is considered to be via oral route. Thus, an equal absorption is assumed when extrapolating from oral to inhalation route.

AF for dose response relationship:
1
Justification:
The dose descriptor starting point is based on a NOAEL.
AF for differences in duration of exposure:
6
Justification:
The DNEL is based on a subacute study.
AF for interspecies differences (allometric scaling):
1
Justification:
AF not used for inhalation route.
AF for other interspecies differences:
2.5
Justification:
Default value according to ECHA REACH Guidance.
AF for intraspecies differences:
5
Justification:
Default value for workers according to ECHA REACH Guidance.
AF for the quality of the whole database:
1
Justification:
The DNEL is based on a high-quality study.
AF for remaining uncertainties:
1
Justification:
No remaining uncertainties.
