Conclusions:
The 90 days sub-chronic repeated dose study on rat by oral route indicated that no effects observed on clinical sign,body weight and haematology.
Thus, on the basis of study results the NOAEL (No observed adverse effect level) was observed to be 331.33 mg/kg/day
Executive summary:
</font>

The repeated dose toxicity by oral route NOAEL for CAS no. 88-21-1 is estimated to be 994mg/kg bw/day (when converted to sub-chronic become 331.33 mg/kg bw/day) for rat using the toolbox version 3.2. The data is estimated to be based on the data summarized below:

Thus the calculated NOAEL of analogues for 90 days for the species rat is 333.33 mg/kg bw /day. Thus the predicted NOAEL value is (calculated to be) 333.33 mg/kg bw/d with 90 days for rat (harmonized using assessment factors) falls within the domain using Log Kow as the descriptor and justified to be used as NOAEL for further DNEL calculation for the purpose of risk assessment. Also it does not impact the classification of the substance thus the predicted value considered to be acceptable. 

Justified to be used as NOAEL for the purpose of weight of evidence

Additional information

Repeated dose toxicity oral:

1.

NOEL

Rat (Sprague-Dawley)

Predicted data from QSAR for target CAS:88-21-1

NOAEL

300mg/kg/day bw

Rat (Sprague-Dawley)

oral: gavage

No change in mortality and behavior were observed in any groups.body weight and food consumption: No toxic effect was observed in any

groups.

Experimental data from study report for read across CAS:88 -44 -8

 

Based on the studies summarized in the above table with oral routes it can be observed that the endpoint No observed adverse effect value (NOAEL) varies from 300mg/kg/day bw to 331.33 mg/kg/day based on the data from prediction for target substance and from publication for read across. The effect observed on the above doses are-

 * No effects observed on clinical sign, body weight and haematology.

* No change in mortality and behavior were observed in any groups.body weight and food consumption: No toxic effect was observed in any groups.

 

Based on the above results it can be concluded that the no observed effect level (NOEL) for target substance is 331.33 mg/kg/day and no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) for read across substance is 300mg/kg/day bw, thus based on this value it can be concluded that substance CAS: 88-21-1(2-aminobenzenesulphonic acid) is considered to be not toxic to repeated dose via oral route up to the above mentioned doses as per the CLP criteria.  

Repeated dose toxicity: inhalation

For 2-aminobenzenesulphonic acid, repeated dose toxicity testing by the inhalation route was considered for waiver given that the substance has low vapour pressure of 0.000027 at 25 degC as well as the particle size distribution indicates that the majority particle size is 150 (62.80%) - 300 (17.83%) micro meter. Thus, exposure by inhalation route is also unlikely for 2-aminobenzenesulphonic acid given the comparatively larger size of the particulates.

Repeated dose toxicity: dermal

Repeated dermal toxicity is unlikely to occur since dermal absorption of 2-aminobenzenesulphonic acid is very low based on the value 0.00027 mg/cm2/event. Thus, given considerations, it is assumed that 2-aminobenzenesulphonic acid shall not exhibit repeated dose toxicity by the dermal route.

Justification for selection of repeated dose toxicity via oral route - systemic effects endpoint:

The 90 days sub-chronic repeated dose study on rat by oral route indicated that no effects observed on clinical sign,body weight and haematology.

Thus, on the basis of study results the NOAEL (No observed adverse effect level) was observed to be 331.33 mg/kg/day bw.

Justification for classification or non-classification

The substance 2-aminobenzenesulphonic acid do not show repeated dose toxicity effect for oral,dermal and inhalation route and thus will not be considered for further classification.
