Acute, systemic DNEL
Short term DNELs are not required as the acute toxicity of the test substance is low. The test substance is not classified and labelled for acute systemic toxicity, according to Regulation 1272/2008/EC (CLP), based on the test data for acute oral, dermal and inhalative toxicity.
Acute/longterm, local
The test substance is not classified and labelled as irritating to skin. Furthermore it is not considered as sensitising based on several Buehler assays in guinea pigs. The test substance is considered as eye damaging. Therefore respective qualitative risk minimisation measures need to be taken into account for the risk assessment.
Long term, systemic DNEL
Occupational exposure to the test substance occurs mainly by dermal route, and may also occur by inhalation exposure. Therefore two long-term DNELs are calculated for workers. In view of the data used for evaluation, the "quality of whole database factor" and "dose-response factor" are considered to amount each to a value of 1, and are thus not shown in the calculations presented below.
Exposure by inhalation
Step 1: Selection of the relevant dose descriptor (starting point):
In order to derive a long-term inhalation DNEL, an inhalation NO(A)EC was derived from NO(A)EL oral value (determined in a 1-year repeated dose toxicity study with dogs), as no repeated dose inhalation study was available. Oral NO(A)EL of 286 mg/kg bw/day was converted to an inhalation NO(A)EC, assuming 100 % absorption via the lung and 50 % absorption via the oral route.
Step 2: Modification into a correct starting point:
The oral NO(A)EL was converted into an inhalation NO(A)EC according to the following formula assuming a daily exposure period of 8 hours during light activity:
Relevant dose descriptor (NO(A)EL): 286 mg/kg bw/day
Standard respiratory volume of the dog (sRVdog) for 8 hours: 0.13 m³/kg bw/day
Oral absorption of the dog / inhalation absorption of humans (ABSoral-dog / ABSinh-human): 0.5
Standard respiratory volume of humans (sRVhuman) for 8 hours: 6.7 m³
Worker respiratory volume (wRV) for 8 hours with light physical activity: 10 m³
Corrected inhalatory NOAEC for workers
= 286 mg/kg bw/day × (1 / 0.13 m³/kg bw/day) × 0.5 × (6.7 m³/10 m³)
= 737 mg/m³
Step 3: Use of assessment factors: 12.5
Interspecies AF, remaining differences: 2.5
Intraspecies AF (worker): 5
Exposure duration AF: 1
In conclusion, long term systemic inhalation DNEL, workers = 59 mg/m³
Dermal exposure
Step 1: Selection of the relevant dose descriptor (starting point):
In order to derive a long-term dermal DNEL, a dermal NO(A)EL was derived from NO(A)EL oral value (determined in a 1-year repeated dose toxicity study with dogs), as no repeated dose dermal study was available. The oral NO(A)EL of 286 mg/kg bw/day was used as starting point.
Step 2: Modification into a correct starting point:
Correction for dermal absorption rates of the test substance (based on Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment, R. 7C, 2014, Chapter R 7.12):
Dermal absorption is supposed to be favourable regarding the molecular weight of 261.3 g/mol. Therefore, oral NO(A)EL of 286 mg/kg bw/day was converted to a dermal NO(A)EL, considering a comparable absorption via dermal and oral route.
In conclusion, dermal NO(A)EL = 286 mg/kg bw/d.
Step 3: Use of assessment factors: 17.5
Interspecies AF, allometric scaling (dog to human): 1.4
Interspecies AF, remaining differences: 2.5
Intraspecies AF (worker): 5
Exposure duration AF: 1
In conclusion, long term systemic dermal DNEL, workers = 16.3 mg/kg bw/day.

In order to derive a long-term oral DNEL, the NOAEL determined in the 1-year repeated dose toxicity study with dogs was identified as the relevant dose descriptor (286.5 mg/kg bw/day).
Step 2: Use of assessment factors: 35
