Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information

A 28-day oral toxicity study resulted in a NOAEL of 50 mg/kg bw and a NOEL of 10 mg/kg bw. A 28-day dermal toxicity test was cancelled because of rapid and severe skin reactions during the 5-day dose range-finding test. 

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Repeated dose toxicity: via oral route - systemic effects

Additional information

In a 28 -day oral test, the NOAEL was 50 mg/kg bw. A 5 -day RF dermal toxicity showed severe skin damage at levels of 1000, 300, 100 and 30 mg/kg bw/day. The dose not causing dermal reactions would be < 1/10 of the NOAEL found in the 28-day oral study (NOAEL oral = 50 mg/kg bw); hence a dermal study was deemed not to provide useful information with regard to systemic toxicity. Because Perkalink 900 is a strong skin sensitiser it may be assumed that during the 5 -day RF test, the animals develop a primary sensitisation and, upon continued exposure, subsequently a severe allergic reaction leading to the observed skin damage.
