experimental animals (7 d/w) and in humans (5 d/w in workers).
No experimental data on absorption via oral and inhalation route available, thus worst case assumption for absorption: 50 % orally and 100 % by inhalation.Corrected inhalatory NOAEC = 1000 mg/kg bw/day × (1/0.38 m3/kg/day) × (50 %/100 %) × (6.7 m3 (8h)/10 m3 (8h)) × (7 d/w / 5 d/w) = 1234.21 mg/m3

Inhalation route - systemic effects
A DNEL for prolonged exposure was derived from the oral subacute study, which revealed a NOAEL = 1000 mg/kg bw/day (no LOAEL determined, substance not classified as to repeated dose toxicity properties).
No hazard was identified upon short-term exposure, since the substance was not classified as acutely toxic.
Inhalation route - local effects
Local effects by long-term and short-term inhalation were assessed, based on a eye irritation study, as no study by via inhalation was available. Medium and low hazard were identified due to uncertainties by exposure route and duration.
Dermal route - systemic effects
Absorption by dermal route is expected to be low, based on a high molecular weight and a low logPow of the substance. However, a positive response in the GPMT gave evidence of absorption to a certain extent.
Accordingly, both long-term and short-term exposure to test substance via dermal route was associated to a high hazard, as might cause hypersensitivity reactions.
Dermal route - local effects
In a skin irritation test, slight reversible irritation was seen, not leading to classification. Consequently, no hazard was identified for acute exposure by dermal route.
However, slight irritation signs were noted in the acute toxicity test, in the skin irritation test and in the preliminary screenings in the GPMT. As no data was available on possible effects upon prolonged exposure, a medium hazard was assumed.
No hazard for eyes was identified as the substance is not eye irritant.

- Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:
No inhalation study is available and the NOAEC was derived by route to route extrapolation from the oral NOAEL.
24 h exposure time, extrapolation from 50 % bioavailability oral to 100 % bioavailability inhalation.
Corrected inhalatory NOAEC = 1000 mg/kg bw/day × (1/1.15 m3/kg/day) × (50 %/100 %) = 434.78 mg/m3
