Workers - Hazard via dermal route

Systemic effects

Long term exposure
Hazard assessment conclusion:
DNEL (Derived No Effect Level)
Value:
0.4 mg/kg bw/day
Most sensitive endpoint:
repeated dose toxicity
Route of original study:
Oral
DNEL related information
DNEL derivation method:
ECHA REACH Guidance
Overall assessment factor (AF):
50
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Value:
20 mg/kg bw/day
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:
SCCS (2009) concluded a chronic NOAEL of 10 mg/kg bw/d of cetrimonium bromide dosed through drinking water. As the dermal absorption rate in rats (approx 3%) is considered less than the oral absorption rate in rats (approx. 6%), this oral NOAEL value may be extrapolated to a dermal NOAEL value of 20 mg/kg bw/d in rats.
AF for dose response relationship:
1

1
AF for interspecies differences (allometric scaling):
4
AF for other interspecies differences:

5
AF for the quality of the whole database:
1
AF for remaining uncertainties:
1

Additional information - General Population

The only consumer/general population exposure to the substance is through use in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals and therefore hazard to consumers/general population is in this case outside the scope of REACH.
