Additional information - workers

The starting point for the derivation of the DNELs is the NOAEL obtained in rat in an oral 13-week repeated toxicity study: NOAEL = 2000 mg/kg bw/d.

When calculating DNELs according to Chapter R.8 of Guidance on Information Requirements and Chemical Safety Assessment (2008) the overall AFs for oral and dermal repeated dose toxicity are 200 (for general population) and 100 (for workers). This is established by taking into account an interspecies factor of 10 (4 for metabolic rate differences × 2.5 for remaining differences), an intraspecies factor of 10 (for general population) and 5 (for workers), and a further factor of 2 to allow for subchronic to chronic extrapolation. The overall AFs for inhalation repeated dose toxicity which should be applied to the corrected NOAECs (2,000 mg/kg bw/day/0.38 m3/kg/day × 6.7 m3/10 m3 for worker and 2,000 mg/kg bw/day/1.15 m3/kg/day for general population) are 25 (for workers) and 50 (for general population) respectively. This is established by taking into account an interspecies factor of 2.5 (for remaining differences), an intraspecies factor of 5 (for workers) and 10 (for general population), and a further factor of 2 to allow for subchronic to chronic extrapolation.

As no hazard was identified for acute toxicity and local effects, no DNELs were calculated.
