Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Value:

Overall assessment factor (AF):
150
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
LOAEC
Value:
406.56 mg/m³
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:
Regarding absorption, in the absence of reliable data for both the starting route (oral) and the end route (inhalation), worst case assumptions were made. It was assumed that a limited absorption occurs by the oral route, leading to a low (conservative) internal NOAEL. To secure a conservative external NOAEL, a maximum absorption should be assumed for the inhalation route (i.e.; 100%) leading to a low external NOAEL. Thus, in the case of oral-to- inhalation extrapolation, it is proposed to include a default factor of 2, i.e. the absorption percentage by oral route is half that of the inhalation absorption as suggested on page 19 of Guidance Document, Chapter R.8 (2010). To convert the oral NOAEL into inhalatory NOAEC, a rat default respiratory volume was used corresponding to the daily duration of human exposure (sRVrat: 0.38 m3/kg bw/8 h). For workers a correction was added for the difference between respiratory rates under standard conditions (sRVhuman: 6.7 m3 for an 8-h exposure period) and under conditions of light activity (wRV: 10 m3 for an 8-h exposure period). The corrected dose descriptor for inhalation is [500 mg/kg bw/day] / [0.38 m3/kg bw/day] X [6.7 m3/10m3] /2. Then, a correction factor based on the ratio between the molecular mass of the registered substance (190.28 g/mol) and and the supporting substance (206.3 g/mol) was applied to extrapolate the corrected starting point for the registered substance. Thus, the corrected dose descriptor for inhalation is 406.56 mg/m3 for workers
AF for dose response relationship:
6
Justification:
Taking into account the uncertainties in the dose descriptor, an assessment factor was applied on the LOAEL to extrapolate a NOAEL. In the ECETOC TR No. 86 (2003), a review of published studies in which the ratios of LOAELs to NOAELs were compared for a range of different chemicals and different study duration indicates than LOAEL rarely exceed the NOAEL by more than arbour 5-6 fold and is typically closer to 3. As a worst-case, and since it is difficult to conclude on the severity of the effect observed, this factor of 6 was applied on the LOAEL.

Value:

Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:
For potential dermal exposure, route-to-route extrapolation from the oral NOAEL value was considered appropriate. A correction factor based on the ratio between the molecular mass of the registered substance (190.28 g/mol) and and the supporting substance (206.3 g/mol) was applied to extrapolate the corrected starting point for the registered substance. Thus, the corrected dose descriptor for inhalation is 461.17 mg/kg bw for workers

Regarding absorption, in the absence of reliable data for both the starting route (oral) and the end route (inhalation), worst case assumptions were made. It was assumed that a limited absorption occurs by the oral route, leading to a low (conservative) internal NOAEL. To secure a conservative external NOAEL, a maximum absorption should be assumed for the inhalation route (i.e.; 100%) leading to a low external NOAEL. Thus, in the case of oral-to- inhalation extrapolation, it is proposed to include a default factor of 2, i.e. the absorption percentage by oral route is half that of the inhalation absorption as suggested on page 19 of Guidance Document, Chapter R.8 (2010). To convert the oral NOAEL into inhalatory NOAEC, a rat default respiratory volume was used corresponding to the daily duration of human exposure (sRVrat: 1.15 m3/kg bw/24 h). The corrected dose descriptor for inhalation is [500 mg/kg bw/day] / [1.15 m3/kg bw/day] /2. Then, a correction factor based on the ratio between the molecular mass of the registered substance (190.28 g/mol) and and the supporting substance (206.3 g/mol) was applied to extrapolate the corrected starting point for the registered substance. Thus, the corrected dose descriptor for inhalation is 200.51 mg/m3 for consumers
