Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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:
8.5 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):
62.5
Dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Value:
300 mg/kg bw/day
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEC
Value:
529 mg/m³
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

For the derivation of all DNELs a NOAEL of 300 mg/kg bw/day obtained in the oral gavage 90d-repeated dose toxicity study in rats (0, 100, 300 and 1000 mg/kg bw) was chosen as dose descriptor starting point.

For workers:

Corrected inhalatory NOAEC = oralNOAEL x 1/sRVanimal x ABS oral / ABS inhalation

The standard respiratory volume (sRV) for the 8 h exposure is 0.38 m³/kg bw for rats and 6.7 m³ (per person) in humans. The default 8-h respiratory volume of a worker is 10 m³ taking increased activity into account. The inhalatory absorption is regarded to be equivalent to the oral absorption.

This results in the following equation:

Corrected inhalatory NOAEC = 300 mg/kg bw/d x 1/0.38 m³/kg bw x 6.7 m³ / 10 m3 = 529 mg/m³
AF for dose response relationship:
1
Justification:
The descriptor starting point is a NOAEL. The dose response relationship is considered unremarkable.
AF for differences in duration of exposure:
2
Justification:
The DNEL is derived from a subchronic repeated dose toxicity study.
AF for interspecies differences (allometric scaling):
1
Justification:
Respiratory interspecies differences are fully covered by the factors used for route to route extrapolation.
AF for other interspecies differences:
2.5
Justification:
There is no evidence for species differences in the general mode of action or kinetics. However, standard AF is applied.
AF for intraspecies differences:
5
Justification:
Default AF for the worker.
AF for the quality of the whole database:
1
Justification:
The quality of the whole database is considered to be sufficient and uncritical.
AF for remaining uncertainties:
2.5
Justification:
An additional assessment factor for remaining uncertainties is applied.
Acute/short term exposure
Hazard assessment conclusion:
no hazard identified
Most sensitive endpoint:
acute toxicity
Route of original study:

Overall assessment factor (AF):
250
Dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Value:
300 mg/kg bw/day
AF for dose response relationship:
1
Justification:
The descriptor starting point is a NOAEL. The dose response relationship is considered unremarkable.
AF for differences in duration of exposure:
2
Justification:

4
Justification:
Default allometric scaling factor for differences between rats and humans.
AF for other interspecies differences:
2.5
Justification:
There is no evidence for species differences in the general mode of action or kinetics. However, standard AF is applied.
AF for intraspecies differences:
5
Justification:
Default AF for the worker.
AF for the quality of the whole database:
1
Justification:
The quality of the whole database is considered to be sufficient and uncritical.
AF for remaining uncertainties:
2.5
Justification:
An additional assessment factor for remaining uncertainties is applied.

Additional information - General Population

1,7-octadiene is only handled in industrial or professional settings (for details refer to IUCLID section 3.5 or to CSR section 2). Since exposure of the general public is precluded, DNELs for the general population are not relevant and thus not derived.
