- Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:
The NOAEL of 10 mg/kg/day from an OECD 408 oral study with rats on a read-across substance was used. A dermal penetration study is available. The mean penetrated amount is 0.0103% of applied dose on human skin. Therefore 10 mg/kg/day/0.000103 results in a dose descriptor of 97087 as the starting point.

CAS# 13472 -08 -7 DNEL Discussion Revised 4-17-2017
The DNELs for the registered substance were calculated using the results from an OECD 408 study conducted with the read-across substance, 2,2’-azodi(isobutyronitrile) CAS# 78-67-1.
In conclusion, daily administration of the read-across substance for 13 weeks at dose levels of 0.5, 2 or 10 mg/kg/day was well tolerated. There was no evidence of neurotoxicity. There were slight changes in some blood clinical chemistry and urine parameters at all dose levels. The liver and kidney were identified as target organs based on increased weights (at all dose levels in males) and
microscopic findings of hepatocyte hypertrophy (at all dose levels in males and at =2 mg/kg/day in females) and focal nephropathy/tubular basophilia and hyaline droplets in males at all dose
levels. The liver hypertrophy is considered an adaptive change commonly associated with metabolic burden and the changes in the kidney are considered specific to the male rat as
confirmed by immunohistochemical staining. Therefore, the nature of these histopathological changes are considered to be of no toxicological relevance and the No-Observed-Adverse-Effect-
Level (NOAEL) is considered to be 10 mg/kg/day.
Systemic Dermal DNEL Worker
A systemic NOAEL of 10 mg/kg/day is based on the OECD 408 oral rat gavage study.
Oral absorption rat — oral/dermal absorption human: A dermal penetration study is available. The mean penetrated amount is 0.0103%of applied dose on human skin.

oral NOAEL x (1/sRVrat)x(ABSoral-rat/ABSinh-human)xs(RVhuman/wRV)
ABSoral-rat/ABSinh-human is 100/100 = 1.0 Due to the low volatility and high water solubility, the respiratory absorption and oral absorption were considered equal. Guidance on requirements and chemical safety assessment Ch. R.7c pg 159 state that, “Vapors of very hydrophilic substances may be retained within the mucus. For absorption of deposited material similar criteria as for GI absorption apply.”
