Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

In the absence of reliable data on repeated inhalation and dermal toxicity and in light of the observation that no toxicity was observed in subacute and chronic oral studies as well as the observation that no acute toxicity was observed up to the highest doses/concentrations tested no DNELs for workers need to be derived.

Additional information - General Population

The DNEL for systemic effects after oral long-term exposure has been derived on the basis of the NOAEL in the rat-study on developmental toxicity by Hess et al. (1981) as well as on the 2 -year dog study of Scala and Paynter (1967). Based on the NOAEL of 2500 mg/kg bw/d from the Hess study and an overall assessment factor of 100 (scaling factor 4, factor for remaining interspecies differences 2.5, intraspecies factor 10) a DNEL of 25 mg/kg bw/d was derived. An assessment factor of 35

(scaling factor 1.4, factor for remaining interspecies differences 2.5, intraspecies factor 10), applied to the NOAEL of 750 mg/kg bw/d (highest dose tested) from the Scala study delivered a DNEL of 21 mg/kg bw/d, which supports the DNEL from the rat study.

In the Hess study rats were not only exposed during gestation, but also during lactation, growing up and mating, and two former generations (F0, F1) of the parental generation (F2) have already been exposed to 1,3-BD.

Thus, the study on developmental toxicity by Hess et al. (1981) and the 2 -year study with dogs by Scala and Paynter (1967) lead to similar DNELs. NOAELs in these studies were lower than the NOAEL of a chronic feeding study in rats (5000 mg/kg bw/d; Scala and Paynter, 1967), which means that this procedure is more conservative. Due to the availability of a lifetime study no assessment factor for a less-than-lifetime study is needed.
