Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Workers - Hazard via inhalation route

Systemic effects

Long term exposure
Hazard assessment conclusion:
DNEL (Derived No Effect Level)
Value:
2.1 mg/m³
Most sensitive endpoint:
repeated dose toxicity
Route of original study:
Oral
DNEL related information
DNEL derivation method:
ECHA REACH Guidance
Overall assessment factor (AF):
25
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEC
Value:
52.9 mg/m³
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:
Starting point is a 90-day study in rat by oral route which establishing a NOAEL of 30 mg/kg bw/day for systemic toxicity. Corrected inhalation NOAEC = oral NOAELrat (30 mg/kg) * 1/0.38 * 6.7/10 = 52.9 mg/m3. No factor 2 route extrapolation from oral to inhalation. Due to low vapour pressure (0.18 Pa at 20 °C), relevant exposure is only possible as aerosol (no fine spraying, only larger droplets). Droplets will deposit mainly on upper airways, and will be subsequently swallowed following mucociliary transportation to pharynx. This results to no principal difference in absorption compared oral route.
AF for dose response relationship:
1
Justification:
No specific concerns. Effects at LOAEL are not severe and mostly of local nature (irritation stomach)
AF for differences in duration of exposure:
2
Justification:
Default sub-chronic to chronic
AF for interspecies differences (allometric scaling):
1
Justification:
Not required for inhalation since this is already accounted for when obtaining the corrected NOEC
AF for other interspecies differences:
2.5
Justification:
Default remaining factor
AF for intraspecies differences:
5
Justification:
Default for workers
AF for the quality of the whole database:
1
Justification:
Based on good quality and consistent data.

DNEL (Derived No Effect Level)
Value:

Overall assessment factor (AF):

Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEC
Value:
26.1 mg/m³
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:
Starting point is a 90-day study in rat by oral route which establishing a NOAEL of 30 mg/kg bw/day for systemic toxicity. Corrected inhalation NOAEC = oral NOAELrat (30 mg/kg) * 1/1.15 mg/m3 = 26.1 mg/m3. No factor 2 route extrapolation from oral to inhalation. Due to low vapour pressure (0.18 Pa at 20 °C), relevant exposure is only possible as aerosol (no fine spraying, only larger droplets). Droplets will deposit mainly on upper airways, and will be subsequently swallowed following mucociliary transportation to pharynx.

Additional information - General Population

The uses indicated in this dossier are limited to industrial and professional users and exposure of the general population is not to be expected.

Also assessment of indirect exposure is not needed as the tonnage is not above 1000 tpa, and the substance not is classified as CMR or toxic (R48 or STOT-RE).

However, to allow for evaluation from indirect exposures via the environment, DNELs have been derived for systemic toxicity from long term exposures via all routes.
