Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

DNEL related information
DNEL derivation method:
ECHA REACH Guidance
Overall assessment factor (AF):
100
Dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Value:
1 000 mg/kg bw/day
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Value:
1 000 mg/kg bw/day
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

Converted oral NOAEL rat (in mg/Kg bw/day) into dermal NOAEL rat (in mg/Kg bw/day) by correcting for differences in absorption between routes as well as for differences in dermal absorption between rats and humans.

 

Corrected  dermal  NOAEL 

= oral  NOAEL  x  (ABSoral-rat/  ABSdermal-rat)  x  (ABSdermal-rat/ABSdermal-human)

= 1000 mg/Kg bw/day x (ABSoral-rat/ ABSdermal-human)            

= 1000 mg/Kg bw/day x (1/1)

Corrected dermal NOAEL = 1000 mg/Kg bw/day

Note: Dermal absorption assumed not be higher than oral absorption, therefore no default factor (i.e. factor 1) introduced when performing oral-to-dermal extrapolation (ECHA Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment Chapter R.8: Characterisation of dose [concentration]-response for human health, Version 2.1, November 2012).

AF for dose response relationship:
1
Justification:
Default assessment factor when the starting point for the DNEL calculation is a NOAEL (ECHA Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment Chapter R.8: Characterisation of dose [concentration]-response for human health, Version 2.1, November 2012).
AF for differences in duration of exposure:
2
Justification:
Default assessment factor of 2 applied when extrapolating duration of exposure from sub-chronic to chronic (ECHA Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment Chapter R.8:Characterisation of dose [concentration]-response for human health, Version 2.1, November 2012).
AF for interspecies differences (allometric scaling):
4
Justification:
Allometric scaling factor for rats compared to humans (ECHA Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment Chapter R.8: Characterisation of dose [concentration]-response for human health, Version 2.1, November 2012).
AF for other interspecies differences:
2.5
Justification:
Additional factor of 2.5 for other interspecies differences; systemic effects (ECHA Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment Chapter R.8: Characterisation of dose [concentration]-response for human health, Version 2.1, November 2012).
AF for intraspecies differences:
5
Justification:
For workers, as standard procedure for threshold effects, a default assessment factor of 5 was applied (ECHA Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment Chapter R.8: Characterisation of dose [concentration]-response for human health, Version 2.1, November 2012).
AF for the quality of the whole database:
1
Justification:
Default assessment factor applied for good/standard quality of the database, taking into account completeness, consistency and the standard information requirements (ECHA Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment Chapter R.8: Characterisation of dose [concentration]-response for human health, Version 2.1, November 2012).
AF for remaining uncertainties:
1

Dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Value:
1 000 mg/kg bw/day
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Value:
1 000 mg/kg bw/day
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

No modification necessary (assuming 100% absorption for both routes in both species)

 

Corrected Oral NOAEL= 1000 mg/Kg bw/day

Note: 100% absorption for both routes in both species assumed (ECHA Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment Chapter R.8: Characterisation of dose [concentration]-response for human health, Version 2.1, November 2012).
