Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

25
Dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Value:
300 mg/kg bw/day
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEC
Value:
370 mg/m³
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

Basis for the calculation of the corrected inhalatory No-Observed-Adverse-Effect-Concentration (NOAEC) is a No-Observed-Adverse-Effect-Level (NOAEL) of 300 mg/kg bw/day as determined in a subchronic (90-day) oral repeated dose toxicity study in the rat. Differences in respiratory volumes of laboratory animals and workers, frequency of exposure as well as inhalative and oral absorption rates were accounted for.

Corrected inhalatory NOAEC = NOAELoral, rat x (1/sRVrat) x (ABSoral, rat/ABSinhal., human) x (sRVhuman/wRV) x (fexpo, rat/fexpo, worker)

sRV: Standard respiratory volume

wRV: Respiratory volume of workers (8 h)

ABS: Absorption rate (oral absorption is assumed to be 50% of inhalation absorption as default)

fexpo: Frequency of exposure (rat: 7 days/week; workers: 5 days/week)

Corrected inhalatory NOAEC = 300 x (1/0.38) x 0.5 x (6.7/10) x (7/5) = 370 mg/m3

NOAEL
Value:
420 mg/kg bw/day
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

Basis for the calculation of the corrected dermal No-Observed-Adverse-Effect-Level (NOAEL) is a No-Observed-Adverse-Effect-Level (NOAEL) of 300 mg/kg bw/day as determined in a subchronic (90-day) oral repeated dose toxicity study in the rat. Differences in the frequency of exposure as well as dermal and oral absorption rates were accounted for.

Corrected dermal NOAEL = NOAELoral, rat x (ABSoral, rat/ABSdermal, human) x (fexpo, rat/fexpo, worker)

ABS: Absorption rate (dermal absorption is assumed not to be higher than oral absorption as default)

fexpo: Frequency of exposure (rat: 7 days/week; workers: 5 days/week)
