Toxicokinetics

Considering theavailable information on absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion for the target chemical sulisobenzone and the read across chemicals in the various end points and also since the bio-concentration factor (BCF) of sulisobenzone is very low (3.2), the bio-accumulation potential of sulisobenzone appears to be low.

Acute toxicity :

Based on the available studies, sulisobenzone is unlikely to exhibit acute toxicity by the oral, inhalation and dermal route of exposure.

Skin & eye irritation :

On the basis of the available studies, sulisobenzone is classified as a skin and eye irritant.

Skin sensitizer :

Available data and the waiver considering that 1% volume soltuion of sulisobenzone is equal to or less than 2, suggests that sulisobenzone is likely to be sensitizing to skin

DNEL derivation

Sulisobenzone does not exhibits acute toxicity by the oral, inhalation and dermal route of exposure and thus is not classified for acute toxicity. The chemical was found to be irritating to skin and eye. Available data also indicate that the chemical is not likele to exhibit genotoxicity and is not a reproductive toxin as well as not a developmental toxin within the dose levels mentioned in the respective end points.

 

In the absence of local effects following short-term or long-term exposure, no dose-response data are available and a quantitative dose descriptor is not derived. DNEL values for local exposure are therefore not calculated.

 

In the absence of acute systemic toxicity, no dose-response data are available and a quantitative dose descriptor is not derived. DNEL values for acute systemic effects are therefore not calculated.

 

A standard approach to deriving DNEL values in this case has been to use the reproductive toxicity dataset and apply assessment factors as described in ECHA guidance documents. The critical endpoint is considered to be the NOAEL of 1250 mg/kg bw/d in oral category.
