Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Administration / exposure

Route of administration:
inhalation: aerosol
Type of inhalation exposure:
not specified
Vehicle:
air
Details on inhalation exposure:
GENERATION OF TEST ATMOSPHERE / CHAMBER DESCRIPTION
- Exposure apparatus: plexiglass
- Exposure chamber volume: 260 L
- Source and rate of air: 20 L/min
- System of generating particulates/aerosols: six-jet Collision nebulizer (BGI Incorporated, Waltham, MA). The air was passed through a desicant prior to being passed through the test material.
- Method of particle size determination: Andersen Sampler cascade impactor. The sampler was run for 5 minutes midway through the exposure. During sampling, air from the breathing zone of the animals was drawn through the cascade impactor at the rate of 1 ft3/min. The amount of aerosol impacting on each plate of the Andersen Sampler was determined by differential weighing. From these values the mass median diameter of the aerosol was calculated to be 0.48 microns and the concentration was calculated to be 0.10 mg/L.
- Temperature, humidity, pressure in air chamber: 72 degree F
The average concentration of the aerosol over the one-hour exposure period was calculated to be 12.6 mg/L by differential weighing of the flask from which the aerosol was generated.
Analytical verification of test atmosphere concentrations:
not specified
Duration of exposure:
1 h
Concentrations:
Data needed for CSR report.
The sample was dosed as supplied (described as a colorless to straw-colored liquid).
No. of animals per sex per dose:
5
Control animals:
other: Data used for CSR
Details on study design:
- Duration of observation period following administration: 21 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: observed daily for a 21-day period for signs of toxicity and mortality.
