Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Additional information - workers

Worker DNELs have not been derived for pigments of the Naphtol AS group because the substances of this category did not cause relevant toxictiy in any test performed according to the information requirements.

- the substances of this category did not cause lethal effects in rats after administration of a single oral dose of >= 2000 mg/kg, a single dermal dose of 2000 mg/kg or a single inhalation concentration of 1580 mg/cubic metre,

- the substances of this category are not irritating and do not have to be classified as eye or skin irritants,

- the substances of this category caused no relevant systemic toxic effects in several subacute studies in rats (NOAEL 1000 mg/kg/day),

- the substances of this category caused no systemic toxic effects, no effects on fertility or development in a Combined Repeated Dose Toxicity Study with the Reproduction / Developmental Toxicity Screening Test (OECD TG 422; NOAEL 1000 mg/kg bw/day) and a

Reproduction / Developmental Toxicity Screening Test (OECD TG 421; NOAEL 1000 mg/kg bw/day),

- the absence of effects in the above-mentioned toxicity endpoint tests indicates that the substances of this category do not interact with living cells/tissues, and

- it is unlikely that the substances of this category become systemically bioavailable due to their extremely low solubility in water and low solubility in n-octanol. The substances of this category are not likely to be systemically available after oral, dermal or inhalation exposure.

Therefore no DNELs for systemic effects have been derived.

Naphtol AS Pigments do not cause irritation, corrosion or sensitization. They are considered unlikely to become bioavailable in the skin and are considered not to be classified regarding respiratory tract irritation. No substance specific effects are expected for the pigments of this category after local exposure, therefore no DNELs for local effects have been derived. Apart from that, relevant occupational exposure limits for inert dusts should be applied.

Additional information - General Population

DNELs for the general population have not been derived for pigments of the Naphtol AS group because the substances of this category did not cause relevant toxicity in any test performed according to the information requirements.

- the substance / supporting/surrogate substances did not cause lethal effects in rats after administration of a single oral dose of >= 2000 mg/kg and >5000 mg/kg, or a single dermal dose of 2000 mg/kg or >5000 mg/kg

- the substance / supporting/ surrogate substances are not irritating and do not have to be classified as eye or skin irritants,

- the substance / supporting/surrogate substances caused no relevant systemic toxic effects in several subacute studies in rats (NOAEL 1000 mg/kg/day),

- the substance / supporting/surrogate substances caused no effects on development in a Combined Repeated Dose Toxicity Study with the Reproduction / Developmental Toxicity Screening Test (NOAEL 1000 mg/kg bw/day)

- the absence of effects in the above-mentioned toxicity endpoint tests indicates that the substances of this category do not interact with living cells/tissues, and

- it is unlikely that the substances of this category become systemically bioavailable due to their extremely low solubility in water and low solubility in n-octanol. The substances of this category are not likely to be systemically available after oral, dermal or inhalation exposure.

Therefore no DNELs for systemic effects have been derived.
