Workers - Hazard via inhalation route

Systemic effects

Long term exposure
Hazard assessment conclusion:
DNEL (Derived No Effect Level)
Value:
0.75 mg/m³
Most sensitive endpoint:
repeated dose toxicity
Route of original study:
By inhalation
DNEL related information
DNEL derivation method:
ECHA REACH Guidance
Overall assessment factor (AF):
2
Dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEC
Value:
1.5 mg/m³
AF for dose response relationship:
1
Justification:
Human exposure
AF for differences in duration of exposure:
2
Justification:
The animal and human studies showed that there is no substantial difference in N(L) OAECs following acute, subacute and/or chronic exposure by inhalation. This is supported by the fact that the toxic effects of chlorine are considered to be a function of its concentration in air and not the duration of exposure.
AF for interspecies differences (allometric scaling):
1
Justification:
Human data
AF for other interspecies differences:
1
Justification:
Human data
AF for intraspecies differences:
1
Justification:
A study in hyper-responsive subjects showed no significant difference in sensitivity.
AF for the quality of the whole database:
1
Justification:
All end-points covered.
AF for remaining uncertainties:
1
Justification:
No remaining uncertainties.
Acute/short term exposure
Hazard assessment conclusion:
DNEL (Derived No Effect Level)
Value:
1.5 mg/m³
Most sensitive endpoint:
irritation (respiratory tract)
Route of original study:
By inhalation
DNEL related information
DNEL derivation method:
other: EU IOELV
Overall assessment factor (AF):
1
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEC

Local effects

Long term exposure
