Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Mice were xposed to manganese dioxide by inhalation from 75 days of pre-pregnancy to gestation day 1 to 8. A TCLo in mice was determined to be 143 mg/m³/day due to reduced weight gains and behavioural changes in newborns.
