Workers - Hazard via inhalation route

Systemic effects

Long term exposure
Hazard assessment conclusion:
DNEL (Derived No Effect Level)
Value:
0.16 mg/m³
Most sensitive endpoint:
repeated dose toxicity
Route of original study:
Oral
DNEL related information
DNEL derivation method:
ECHA REACH Guidance
Dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Value:
0.82 mg/kg bw/day
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEC
Value:
2.02 mg/m³
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

The calculation of the DNEL is based on an oral NOAEL observed in a chronic repeated dose oral toxicity study in rats (NOAEL = 0.82 mg/kg bw/day).
To correct the interspecies difference between rat and human the no observed effect level has to be corrected as follows:
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)* (7 days exposure rat/5 days exposure worker)
= 0.82 mg/kg bw/day * (1/0.38 m³/kg bw/day) * (1/1) * 0.67 m³ * 1.4= 2.02 mg/m³.
Oral absorption rate was measured to be > 80%. Therefore, no correction for oral absorption is needed and it can be assumed that oral and inhalation absorption are both around 100%.
(ABSoral-rat = oral absorption in rats, ABSinh-human = inhalation absorption rate in humans)
Thus, the corrected starting point for workers was 2.02 mg/m³ for inhalation.

Justification:
The dose descriptor starting point is based on a NOAEL.
Justification:
The DNEL is based on a chronic study.
Justification:
An AF is not required as allometric factors are accounted for in modification of the starting point.

DNEL derivation method:
ECHA REACH Guidance
Dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Value:
0.82 ng/kg bw/day
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEC
Value:
0.71 mg/m³
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

The calculation of the DNEL is based on an oral NOAEL observed in a chronic repeated dose oral toxicity study in rats (NOAEL = 0.82 mg/kg bw/day).
To correct the interspecies difference between rat and human the no observed effect level has to be corrected as follows:
Corrected starting point for the inhalative route for workers:
= NOAEL(oral) * (1/1.15 m³/kg bw/day (24h)) * (ABSoral-rat/ABSinh-human)
= 0.82 mg/kg bw/day * (1/1.15 m³/kg bw/day) * (1/1) = 0.71 mg/m³.
Oral absorption rate was measured to be > 80%. Therefore, no correction for oral absorption is needed and it can be assumed that oral and inhalation absorption are both around 100%.
(ABSoral-rat = oral absorption in rats, ABSinh-human = inhalation absorption rate in humans)
Thus, the corrected starting point for workers was 0.71 mg/m³ for inhalation.
