Long-term inhalation

Long-term – inhalation, local/systemic effects (based on the 90 days inhalation study in rats)

Description

Value

Remark

Step 1) Relevant dose-descriptor

NOAEC: 300 mg/m3

Exposure of rats at concentrations of 300 mg/m3 did not induce changes indicative of local or systemic toxicity (changes in haematology, clinical chemistry and organ weights). Therefore, 300 mg/m3 was considered to be the NOAEC for local and systemic toxicity in rats exposed for 6 hours/day, 5 days/week for a period of 90 days.

Step 2) Modification of starting point

6/8

 

 

 

 

6.7 m3/10 m3

Correction of exposure duration in study (6 hrs/day, 5 days/week) to default worker exposure (8 hrs/day, 5 days/week);

 

Correction for activity driven differences of respiratory volumes in workers compared to workers in rest (6.7 m3/10 m3).

Modified dose-descriptor

300 x 6.7 x 6 / (10 x 8) = 150.75 mg/m3

Step 3) Assessment factors

 

 

Interspecies

2.5

No factor for allometric scaling is needed in case of inhalation exposure. A default factor of 2.5 for remaining uncertainties is used.

Intraspecies

Long-term dermal

Long-term – dermal, systemic effects (based on the extended one-generation toxicity study in rats) 

As dermal repeated dose toxicity studies with Polyol IXOL B350 are not available, route to route extrapolation was applied to derive a DNEL for the dermal route, based on the systemic NOAEL of 150 mg/kg bw/day from the oral EOGRTS study.

Description

Value

Remark

Step 1) Relevant dose-descriptor

NOAEL: 150 mg/kg bw/day

Oral exposure to Polyol IXOL B350 (OECD 443, GLP) at dosages of 0, 75, 150 and 450 mg/kg bw/day resulted in treatment-related adverse findings consisting of intratubular hemorrhage in the kidneys of F0 males administered 450 mg/kg/day and thyroid adenomas in F0 males adminstered>75 mg/kg/day, one female adminstered 450 mg/kg/day, and one F1 male administered 75 mg/kg/day. It should be noted that the relevance of such thyroid effects in rat studies - in quantitative terms - to humans is limited. Therefore the kidney effect is considered the most critical effect of Polyol IXOL B350 after repeated oral exposure. Based on the available study, the overall NOAEL for systemic effects by oral route is 150 mg/kg bw/day.

Step 2) Modification of starting point

As no substance specific data is available, default figures will be used:Conservative default for route to route: 100% for inhalation and 100% for dermal absorption

Remark

Step 1) Relevant dose-descriptor

NOAEC: 150 mg/kg bw/day

Oral exposure to Polyol IXOL B350 (OECD 443, GLP) at dosages of 0, 75, 150 and 450 mg/kg bw/day resulted in treatment-related adverse findings consisting of intratubular hemorrhage in the kidneys of F0 males administered 450 mg/kg/day and thyroid adenomas in F0 males adminstered>75 mg/kg/day, one female adminstered 450 mg/kg/day, and one F1 male administered 75 mg/kg/day. It should be noted that the relevance of such thyroid effects in rat studies - inquantitative terms - to humans is limited. Therefore the kidney effect is considered the most critical effect of Polyol IXOL B350 after repeated oral exposure. Based on the available study, the overall NOAEL for systemic effects by oral route is 150 mg/kg bw/day.
