Workers - Hazard via inhalation route

Systemic effects

Long term exposure
Hazard assessment conclusion:
DNEL (Derived No Effect Level)
Value:
1.17 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):
75
Dose descriptor starting point:
LOAEL
Value:
100 mg/kg bw/day
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
LOAEC
Value:
88 mg/m³
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

According to ECHA Guidance – Chapter R8 (p25): “in the absence of route-specific information on the starting route, to include a default factor of 2 (i.e. the absorption percentage for the starting route is half that the end route) in the case of oral-to inhalation extrapolation”. Therefore, as no data is available on oral or inhalation absorption, the oral absorption is estimated to 50% and the inhalation absorption to 100%. The correction factor is 0.5 (50/100).  LOAEC = LOAEL x (1/0.38) x (6.7/10) x 0.5 = 100 x (1/0.38) x (6.7/10) x 0.5 =  88 mg/m3

AF for dose response relationship:
3
Justification:
This factor is applied because the dose-descriptor starting point is a LOAEC.
AF for differences in duration of exposure:
2
Justification:
DNEL is based on a subchronic study (OECD 408).
AF for interspecies differences (allometric scaling):
1
Justification:
AF not used for inhalation.
AF for other interspecies differences:
2.5
Justification:
A factor of 2.5 is applied for remaining difference.
AF for intraspecies differences:
5
Justification:
A factor of 5 is applied for worker DNELs.
AF for the quality of the whole database:
1
Justification:
The key study is considered as a reliable study with a klimisch score of 1.
AF for remaining uncertainties:
1
Justification:
No other assessment factor is applied.
Acute/short term exposure
Hazard assessment conclusion:
no hazard identified
Most sensitive endpoint:

Workers - Hazard via dermal route

Systemic effects

Long term exposure
Hazard assessment conclusion:
DNEL (Derived No Effect Level)
Value:
33 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):
300
Dose descriptor starting point:
LOAEL
Value:
100 mg/kg bw/day
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
LOAEL
Value:
10 000 mg/kg bw/day
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

Corrected dermal LOAEL = oral LOAEL x ABS (oral_rat) / ABS (dermal_human) = 100 x 100 / 1 = 10000 mg/kg/d

AF for dose response relationship:
3
Justification:
This factor is applied because the dose-descriptor starting point is a LOAEL.
AF for differences in duration of exposure:
2
Justification:
DNEL is based on a subchronic study (OECD 408).
AF for interspecies differences (allometric scaling):
4
Justification:
An allometric scaling factor of 4 must be applied because the key study was performed on rats.
AF for other interspecies differences:
2.5
Justification:
A factor of 2.5 is applied for remaining difference.
AF for intraspecies differences:
5
Justification:
A factor of 5 is applied for worker DNELs.
AF for the quality of the whole database:
1
Justification:
The key study is considered as a reliable study with a klimisch score of 1.
AF for remaining uncertainties:
1
Justification:
No other assessment factor is applied.
