General

DNEL derivation for the test item is performed under consideration of the recommendations of ECHA (2010).

Acute, systemic DNEL

The acute DNEL was calculated as 3 times the long-term DNEL, according to Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment, chapter R.8: Characterisation of dose[concentration]-response for human health, November 2012.

MIKP is classified for acute oral and inhalation toxicity, cat. 4 according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (CLP). MIKP is not classified for systemic toxicity after acute dermal exposure, according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (CLP), based on the test data for acute dermal toxicity. As workers are considered not to be exposed orally and no acute dermal hazard was identified, no acute worker DNEL for systemic effects after oral or dermal exposure is derived.

 

MIKP was further shown to have skin sensitisation cat 1 potential. A qualitative assessment is required.

 

Acute/long term DNEL for local effects

Skin irritation/corrosion: MIKP is classified as skin corrosive, cat. 1c, H314 according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (CLP) based on the available experimental data. Therefore, a qualitative assessment is conducted.

 

Eye irritation: MIKP causes severe eye damage, cat 1, H318 according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (CLP) based on the available experimental data. Therefore, a qualitative assessment is conducted.

Respiratory irritation: MIKP causes severe skin burns and eye damage and signs of respiratory irritation were also observed in acute inhalation toxicity studies available. Therefore a qualitative assessment is conducted.

 

Long term, systemic DNEL

Occupational exposure to MIKP occurs mainly by dermal route, and may also occur by inhalation exposure. Therefore two long-term DNELs are calculated for workers. In view of the read-across data used for evaluation, the "quality of whole database factor" and "dose-response factor" are considered to amount each to a value of 1, and are thus not shown in the calculations presented below.

 

Exposure by inhalation

Step 1: Selection of the relevant dose descriptor (starting point):

A 90 -day toxicity study according to OECD TG 408 (2015) is selected for DNEL derivation as it is the relevant repeated dose study performed in accordance to OECD guideline and GLP. In this study, the oral NOAEL in rats is 150 mg/kg bw/day.

Step 2: Modification into a correct starting point:

Using a conservative approach, a worker DNEL (long-term inhalation exposure) is derived. This worker DNEL is considered to ensure an appropriate level of protection with regard to acute inhalation exposure (no high peaks of exposure expected).

 

Relevant dose descriptor (NOAEL): 150 mg/kg bw/day

Standard respiratory volume of the rat (sRVrat) for 8 hours: 0.38 m³/kg bw/d

Oral absorption of the rat / inhalation absorption of humans (ABSoral-rat / ABSinh-human): 0.5

Standard respiratory volume of humans (sRVhuman) for 8 hours: 6.7 m³

Worker respiratory volume (wRV) for 8 hours with light physical activity: 10 m³

 

Corrected inhalatory NOAEC for workers

= 150 mg/kg bw/d × 0.5 × (1 / 0.38 m³/kg bw/d) × (6.7 m³/10 m³)

= 132.2 mg/m³ 

Step 3: Use of assessment factors: 50

Interspecies: Respiratory interspecies differences are fully covered by the modification of the NOAEC

Interspecies AF, remaining differences: 2.5

Intraspecies AF (worker): 5

Exposure duration AF: 2

Remaining uncertainties AF (read across): 2  

In conclusion, long term systemic inhalation DNEL, workers = 2.64 mg/m3

 

Dermal exposure 

Step 1: Selection of the relevant dose descriptor (starting point):

A 90 -day toxicity study according to OECD TG 408 (2015) is selected for DNEL derivation as it is the relevant repeated dose study performed in accordance to OECD guideline and GLP. In this study, the oral NOAEL in rats is 150 mg/kg bw/day

Step 2: Modification of the starting point:

Using a conservative approach, a worker DNEL (long-term dermal exposure) is derived. Based on the physico-chemical properties of MIKP log Kow: 4.2 and water solubility: 252 mg/L) dermal absorption is considered to be 50% of oral absorption.

NOAEL dermal = NOAEL oral x 100/50 = 300

Step 3: Use of assessment factors: 200

Interspecies AF, allometric scaling (rat to human): 4

Interspecies AF, remaining differences: 2.5

Intraspecies AF (worker): 5

Exposure duration AF: 2

Remaining uncertainties AF (read across): 2  

 

In conclusion, long term systemic dermal DNEL, workers = 1.5 mg/kg bw/day

Additional information - General Population

General

 

General population is not intended to be exposed to the test item via inhalation,dermal or oral route. Therefore, no DNEL (long-term, inhalation and dermal exposure) is derived for general population. As the test item has no bioaccumulation potential no risk assessment for secondary poisoning is required for the general population.
