Systemic effects
Long term exposure
- Hazard assessment conclusion:
- DNEL (Derived No Effect Level)
- Value:
- 0.09 mg/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):
- 25
- Modified dose descriptor starting point:
- NOAEC
- Value:
- 7.1 mg/m³
- Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:
- No inhalational study is available. A NOAEL of 4 mg/kg bw/d from a subacute oral toxicity study (OECD 422) is converted to 7.1 mg/m3(4 mg/kg bw/d/0.38 m3/kg bw/d (rat inh vol for 8h) = 10.5 mg/m3and then further modified with a factor 6.7 m3/10 m3due to higher respiration volume during work. The modified starting point is then 7.1 mg/m3
- AF for dose response relationship:
- 1
- AF for differences in duration of exposure:
- 6
- AF for interspecies differences (allometric scaling):
- 1
- Justification:
- Allometric scaling is not to be used as the dose level has been converted to inhalational concentration
- AF for other interspecies differences:
- 2.5
- AF for intraspecies differences:
- 5
- AF for the quality of the whole database:
- 1
- AF for remaining uncertainties:
- 1
Acute/short term exposure
- Hazard assessment conclusion:
- medium hazard (no threshold derived)
- Most sensitive endpoint:
- acute toxicity
- Route of original study:
- By inhalation

Local effects
Long term exposure
- Hazard assessment conclusion:
- DNEL (Derived No Effect Level)
- Value:
- 0.13 mg/m³
- Most sensitive endpoint:
- repeated dose toxicity
DNEL related information
- DNEL derivation method:
- other: ACGIH OEL value, read-across to hydrazine
Acute/short term exposure

DNEL related information
Workers - Hazard via dermal route
Systemic effects
Long term exposure
- Hazard assessment conclusion:
- DNEL (Derived No Effect Level)
- Value:
- 0.013 mg/kg bw/day
- Most sensitive endpoint:
- repeated dose toxicity
- Route of original study:
- Oral
DNEL related information
- DNEL derivation method:
- ECHA REACH Guidance
- Overall assessment factor (AF):
- 300
- Modified dose descriptor starting point:
- NOAEL
- Value:
- 10 mg/kg bw/day
- Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:
- No dermal repeated dose toxicity studies are available. Data from a subacute oral toxicity study (OECD 422) is used where a NOAEL of 4 mg/kg bw/d was identified. As no data regarding skin absorption is available similar absorption after dermal exposes as after oral exposure is assumed as a worst-case scenario.
- AF for dose response relationship:
- 1
- AF for differences in duration of exposure:
- 6
- AF for interspecies differences (allometric scaling):
- 4
- AF for other interspecies differences:

Acute/short term exposure
- Hazard assessment conclusion:
- low hazard (no threshold derived)
DNEL related information
Local effects
Long term exposure
- Hazard assessment conclusion:
- hazard unknown (no further information necessary)
- Most sensitive endpoint:
- sensitisation (skin)
Acute/short term exposure
- Hazard assessment conclusion:
- high hazard (no threshold derived)
- Most sensitive endpoint:
- sensitisation (skin)
Workers - Hazard for the eyes

p-TSH is used as blowing agents in industrial processing and for professional uses.
For systemic effects from long term inhalational exposure, no inhalational study is available. A DNEL of 0.09 mg/m3 was established for p-TSH based on NOAEL of 4 mg/kg bw/d from an oral OECD 422 study.
For local effects in respiratory tract from long term inhalational exposure a DNEL of 0.13 mg/m3 is applicable based on a ACGIH TLV of 0.13 mg/m3 for hydrazine to protect against effects from hydrazine liberated from hydrolysis of p-TSH.
For systemic effects from long term dermal exposure, no dermal study is available. A DNEL of 0.013 mg/kg/d was established for p-TSH based on a NOAEL of 4 mg/kg bw/d found in an oral OECD 422 in rats.
Short term exposure is controlled by conditions for long-term exposure, therefore no DNEL has been established. Further, as p-TSH has been identified as a skin sensitizer, strict control measures should apply.

No hazard can be identified for consumers and the general population as exposure is considered negligible. p-TSH is used as a blowing agent and during the foaming process, p-TSH decomposes into nitrogen and toluene-4-sulphonic acid which is further degraded during this process. Therefore, a direct consumer exposure is not likely to occur since p-TSH is not contained in final products.
