Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Following oral administration in laboratory animals, 4 -aminophenol is well absorbed, while dermal administration in laboratory animals is significantly less. Further data on dermal absorption for risk assessment purposes is in the human data section. When absorbed orally, the substance is excreted in the urine, primarily as acetaminophenol, acetamido glucuronide and acetamidophenyl glucuronide and to a lesser extent as aminosulfate and free 4 -aminophenol. When applied dermally, in vivo and in vitro studies in a human skin model (Episkin) indicate that the primary metabolites are acetaminophenol (paracetamol or APAP) and the sulfate conjugate of acetaminophenol. No data on inhalation bioavailability or pharmacokinetics could be identified.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
