Workers - Hazard via inhalation route

Systemic effects

Long term exposure
Hazard assessment conclusion:
DNEL (Derived No Effect Level)
Value:
14.7 mg/m³
Most sensitive endpoint:
repeated dose toxicity
Route of original study:
Oral
DNEL related information
DNEL derivation method:
other: ECHA REACH Guidance and ECETOC Technical Report No. 110
Overall assessment factor (AF):
6
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEC
Value:
88.2 mg/m³
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

No experimental data on repeated exposure by inhalation. Recommended approach using oral data and assuming the same absorption for inhalation and oral route.

AF for dose response relationship:
1
Justification:
The dose response relationship is considered unremarkable, therefore no additional factor is used.
AF for differences in duration of exposure:
2
Justification:
The default extrapolation factor for exposure duration is used: subchronic (starting point) to chronic (end point). This is considered as a worst case approach.
AF for interspecies differences (allometric scaling):
1
Justification:
Respiratory interspecies differences are fully covered by the factors used for route to route extrapolation.
AF for other interspecies differences:
1
Justification:
There is no evidence for species differences in the general mode of actions or kinetics.
AF for intraspecies differences:
3
Justification:
The (ECETOC) default value for the relatively homogenous group "worker" is used.
AF for the quality of the whole database:
1
Justification:
The quality of the whole data base is considered to be sufficient and uncritical.
AF for remaining uncertainties:
1
Justification:
The approach used for DNEL derivation is conservative. No further assessment factors are required.

AF for differences in duration of exposure:
2
Justification:
The default extrapolation factor for exposure duration is used: subchronic (starting point) to chronic (end point). This is considered as a worst case approach.
AF for interspecies differences (allometric scaling):
4
Justification:
The default allometric scaling factor for the differences between rats and humans is used.
AF for other interspecies differences:
1
Justification:

3
Justification:
The (ECETOC) default value for the relatively homogenous group "worker" is used.

Long-term exposure – systemic effects

 

Inhalation exposure – calculation of the NOAECcorr:

In order to derive the worker DNEL long-term for inhalation route systemic, the NOAEL of 50 mg/kg bw/day from the subchronic oral toxicity study (BASF, 2016; 50C0436/11S254) is considered to represent the appropriate dose descriptor for systemic effects related to long-term inhalation exposure to 1-Ethinyl-1-cyclohexanol.

In order to derive a worker DNEL and under the assumption of a daily exposure period of 8 hours, the oral NOAEL is converted into an inhalation NOAECcorr according to the following formula:

inhalation NOAECcorr

= oral NOAEL × 1/sRV(rat) × ABSoral(rat)/ABSinhalation(human) × sRV(human)/wRV(human)

= 50 mg/kg bw/d × 1/0.38 m³/kg bw/d × 1 × 6.7 m³ / 10 m³ = 88.2 mg/m³

with:

oral NOAEL: 50 mg/kg bw/day

sRV(rat): 0.38 m³/kg bw (8 hours) [standard respiratory volume of the rat]

ABSoral(rat)/ABSinhalation(human): 1 [ratio of oral absorption in the rat to inhalative absorption in the human]

sRV(human)/wRV(human): 6.7 m³/10 m³ (8 hours) [ratio of human standard respiratory volume to worker respiratory volume]

Accordingly, the oral NOAEL of 50 mg/kg bw/day is transformed in an inhalation NOAECcorr of 88.2 mg/m³.

This NOAECcorr serves as dose descriptor starting point to derive the corresponding DNEL value.

 

Dermal exposure - calculation of the NOAELcorr:

In order to derive a worker DNEL and under the assumption of a daily exposure period of 8 hours, the oral NOAEL of 50 mg/kg bw/day (BASF, 2016; 50C0436/11S254) is converted into a dermal NOAEL according to the follwoing formula:

dermal NOAEL

= oral NOAEL × ABSoral(rat) / ABSderm(human)

= 50 mg/kg bw/d × 1

= 50 mg/kg bw/d

with:

oral NOAEL: 50 mg/kg bw/day

ABSoral(rat)/ABSderm(human): 1 [ratio of oral absorption in the rat to dermal absorption in the human]

Accordingly, the oral NOAEL of 50 mg/kg bw/day is transformed in a dermal NOAEL of 50 mg/kg bw/day. This NOAELcorr serves as dose descriptor starting point to derive the corresponding DNEL value.

Additional information - General Population

1-Ethynyl-1-cyclohexanol (CAS 78-27-3) is handled by industrial and professional workers exclusively. Due to this, no DNELs have to be derived for the general population.

Furthermore, based on the data on bioaccumulation (biodegradability, log Pow) and the toxicological classification (no labelling for STOT repeated exposure or reproduction), 1-Ethynyl-1-cyclohexanol does not trigger the derivation of general population DNEL (long-term oral exposure) in order to enable quantitative risk assessment related to potential exposure of the general population via secondary poisoning.
