Additional information - workers

Due to low vapor pressure (3.3E-5 Pa at 20 °C) and high boiling point (> 50 °C), the inhalation route is not considered to be a relevant exposure route to human. However, an inhalative DNEL, long-term systemic has been derived.

It is assumed in the Toxicokinetik assessment based ona conservative approach that the absorption rate from dermal and inhalative route is considered to be 10% whereas by oral route 100% absorption is assumed. Thus the NOAEL inhalative and dermal, derived by route to route extrapolation, have been adjusted accordingly.

One GLP study following OECD guideline 422 was conducted to investigate the potential toxicity of DNNSA and identified NOAEL:

Parental NOAEL: 95 mg/kg/day

Reproduction NOAEL: at least 893 mg/kg/day

Developmental NOAEL: 298 mg/kg body weight/day.

In this study, treatment of male and female Wistar rats with di C8-C10, branched, C9 rich, alkylnaphthalene sulphonic acid (DNNSA) by oral gavage at dose levels of 95, 298, 893 mg/kg body weight/day revealed parental toxicity at 298 and 893 mg/kg body weight/day. At 95 mg/kg, no toxicologically relevant effects were noted in any of the parameters. Developmental toxicity (lower pup body weights) was observed at the high dose of 893 mg/kg. No developmental toxicity was observed for treatments of 95 and 298 mg/kg body weight/day. The NOAEL was 298 mg/kg body weight/day.No reproduction toxicity was observed for treatment up to 893 mg/kg body weight/day.

Therefore, the NOAEL of 95 mg/kg/day was selected as the basis for DNEL derivation according to the strict rule.
