Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Workers - Hazard via inhalation route

Systemic effects

Long term exposure
Hazard assessment conclusion:
DNEL (Derived No Effect Level)
Value:
4.2 mg/m³
Most sensitive endpoint:
repeated dose toxicity
Route of original study:
Oral
DNEL related information
DNEL derivation method:
ECHA REACH Guidance
Overall assessment factor (AF):
25
Dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Value:
60 mg/kg bw/day
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEC
Value:
105.7 mg/m³
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

Corrected inhalatory NOAEC = Rat oral NOAEL x 1/sRVrat x sRVhuman/wRVhuman

                                         = 60 mg/kg x 1/0.38 m3/kg x 6.7 m3/10 m3

= 105.7 mg/m3

Workers - Hazard via dermal route

Systemic effects

Long term exposure
Hazard assessment conclusion:
DNEL (Derived No Effect Level)
Value:
4 mg/kg bw/day
Most sensitive endpoint:
repeated dose toxicity
Route of original study:
Oral
DNEL related information
DNEL derivation method:
other: Assessment of OECD daily intakes in food
Overall assessment factor (AF):
1
Dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Value:
4 mg/kg bw/day
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEL
Value:
1 mg/kg bw/day
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:

Absorption by dermal and oral routes are not known. For highly polar substances such as malonic acid, dermal penetration is considered to be unlikely to be significant. On the assumption that, in general, dermal absorption will not be higher than oral absorption, no default factor needs to be introduced when performing oral-to-dermal extrapolation

According to OECD SIAMs report, normal daily intake through foods and flavourings of malonate is up to 300 mg/day in adults (4 mg/kg/day) with no adverse effects ever reported.

AF for dose response relationship:

Justification:

AF for differences in duration of exposure:

Justification:
