Value:
10 mg/kg bw/day
Most sensitive endpoint:
repeated dose toxicity
Route of original study:
Oral
DNEL related information
DNEL derivation method:
ECHA REACH Guidance
Overall assessment factor (AF):
100
Dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Value:
1 000 mg/kg bw/day
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Value:
1 000 mg/kg bw/day
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

Converted oral NOAEL rat (in mg/Kg bw/day) into dermal NOAEL rat (in mg/Kg bw/day) by correcting for differences in absorption between routes as well as for differences in dermal absorption between rats and humans.

 

Corrected  dermal  NOAEL 

= oral  NOAEL  x  (ABSoral-rat/  ABSdermal-rat)  x  (ABSdermal-rat/ABSdermal-human)

= 1000 mg/Kg bw/day x (ABSoral-rat/ ABSdermal-human)            

= 1000 mg/Kg bw/day x (1/1)

Corrected dermal NOAEL = 1000 mg/Kg bw/day

Note: Dermal absorption assumed not be higher than oral absorption, therefore no default factor (i.e. factor 1) introduced when performing oral-to-dermal extrapolation (ECHA Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment Chapter R.8: Characterisation of dose [concentration]-response for human health, Version 2.1, November 2012).

AF for dose response relationship:
1
Justification:
Default assessment factor when the starting point for the DNEL calculation is a NOAEL (ECHA Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment Chapter R.8: Characterisation of dose [concentration]-response for human health, Version 2.1, November 2012).
AF for differences in duration of exposure:
2
Justification:
Default assessment factor of 2 applied when extrapolating duration of exposure from sub-chronic to chronic (ECHA Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment Chapter R.8:Characterisation of dose [concentration]-response for human health, Version 2.1, November 2012).
AF for interspecies differences (allometric scaling):
4
Justification:
Allometric scaling factor for rats compared to humans (ECHA Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment Chapter R.8: Characterisation of dose [concentration]-response for human health, Version 2.1, November 2012).
AF for other interspecies differences:
2.5
Justification:
Additional factor of 2.5 for other interspecies differences; systemic effects (ECHA Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment Chapter R.8: Characterisation of dose [concentration]-response for human health, Version 2.1, November 2012).
AF for intraspecies differences:
5
Justification:
For workers, as standard procedure for threshold effects, a default assessment factor of 5 was applied (ECHA Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment Chapter R.8: Characterisation of dose [concentration]-response for human health, Version 2.1, November 2012).
AF for the quality of the whole database:
1
Justification:
Default assessment factor applied for good/standard quality of the database, taking into account completeness, consistency and the standard information requirements (ECHA Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment Chapter R.8: Characterisation of dose [concentration]-response for human health, Version 2.1, November 2012).
AF for remaining uncertainties:
1

Dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Value:
1 000 mg/kg bw/day
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Value:
1 000 mg/kg bw/day
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

No modification necessary (assuming 100% absorption for both routes in both species)

 

Corrected Oral NOAEL= 1000 mg/Kg bw/day

Note: 100% absorption for both routes in both species assumed (ECHA Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment Chapter R.8: Characterisation of dose [concentration]-response for human health, Version 2.1, November 2012).
