Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

No TK study performed only data available from individual toxicity testing summarised.

MBD has a low molecular weight but is highly soluble in water and is therefore unlikely to be passively absorbed across a lipid based membrane. It has a low partition coefficient which indicates it is unlikely to bioaccumulate.


Absorption

There was no evidence of absorption from the acute oral or dermal toxicity studies. On the 28-day oral toxicity study
the minor effects of APPT, albumin and male adrenal and thymus weights provided some evidence of absorption.


Distribution

The haematology, blood chemistry and organ weight disturbances metioned above provides evidence of general systemic distribution. There was not evidence of distribution to the central nervous system.


Metabolism

The various studies performed did not provide any information with respect to metabolism.


Excretion

The various studies performed did not provide any information with respect to excretion.


Bioaccumulation

There was no evidence of bioaccumulation.


Conclusion

There was limited evidence of absorption via the oral route after repeated administration resulting in the general
systemic distribution. There was no evidence of distribution to the central nervous system nor evidence of metabolism,
excretion or bioaccumulation.
