WORKERS
1. Acute / short term exposure - systemic effects
Dermal route : Based on the available data, the substance is not classified for this endpoint (LD50>2000 mg/kg).
Inhalation route : Due to the lack of information for the inhalation route, no DNEL is derived.
2. Acute / short term exposure - local effects
No information on local effects (dermal and inhalation routes) are available.
3. Long-term exposure - systemic effects
3.1 Dermal DNEL
In the cross sectional study of Bravermann (2005), 29 male workers exposed chronically to perchlorate, mainly by respiratory route, were investigated for perchlorate exposure level (based on serum and urine perchlorate concentrations) and a whole range of thyroid and hematological and biochemical endpoints. When comparing with normal limits, it could be concluded that no effect on T3, T4 and TSH, thyroid volume, thyroglobulin and urinary iodine excretion occurred at a median absorbed dose of 0.167 mg perchlorate ion/kg/day, over 5.9 years (median: chronic exposure) for 42h/week. Free T4 index was above normal limits in all groups but this is the opposite to the expected effect of perchlorate. Exposure of exposed workers was demonstrated by decreased radioiodine uptake and the detectable serum and urinary perchlorate levels (non-adverse effects).In workers, the equivalent AP exposure level, calculated as 0.20 mg AP/kg/day, was a NOAEL.
Step 1) Relevant dose-descriptor:NOAEL, human = 0.20 mg/kg bw/d
Step 2) Modification of starting point:
* Correction for absorption difference between dermal and oral absorption in human:A dermal absorption is 1.85% (study on chlorate) and the oral absorption is estimated to 100%.
NOAEL corrected = 0.20 x 100 / 1.85 = 10.8 mg/kg bw
Step 3) Assessment factors:
* Interspecies: no factor (human)
* Intraspecies: 5(workers)
* Exposure duration: 1 (chronic study)
* Dose response: 1(NOAEL)
* Quality of database: 1
AF total = 5x1x1x1 = 5
Step 4) DNEL derivation:
DNEL value = 10.8 / 5 = 2.16 mg/kg bw
DNEL Long-term – Dermal value based on human study is 2.16 mg/kg bw.
3.2 Inhalation DNEL
In the cross sectional study of Bravermann (2005), 29 male workers exposed chronically to perchlorate, mainly by respiratory route, were investigated for perchlorate exposure level (based on serum and urine perchlorate concentrations) and a whole range of thyroid and hematological and biochemical endpoints. When comparing with normal limits, it could be concluded that no effect on T3, T4 and TSH, thyroid volume, thyroglobulin and urinary iodine excretion occurred at a median absorbed dose of 0.167 mg perchlorate ion/kg/day, over 5.9 years (median: chronic exposure) for 42h/week. Free T4 index was above normal limits in all groups but this is the opposite to the expected effect of perchlorate. Exposure of exposed workers was demonstrated by decreased radioiodine uptake and the detectable serum and urinary perchlorate levels (non-adverse effects).In workers, the equivalent AP exposure level, calculated as 0.20 mg AP/kg/day, was a NOAEL.
Step 1) Relevant dose-descriptor:NOAEL, human = 0.20 mg/kg bw/d
Step 2) Modification of starting point:
Correction of respiratory volume for relevant duration:The respiratory volume light activity for worker (8h exposure) is 10 m3/person. And the weight of a human is 70 kg per default.
* Correction for absorption difference between oral and inhalation in human:A default oral and inhalation absorption of 100% in humans are used for DNEL derivation.
NOAEC corrected = 0.20 x 70 / 10 = 1.4 mg/m3
Step 3) Assessment factors:
* Interspecies : no factor (human)
* Intraspecies : 5(workers)
* Exposure duration: 1 (chronic study)
* Dose response : 1(NOAEL)
* Quality of database : 1
AF total = 5 x1x 1x1= 5
Step 4) DNEL derivation:
DNEL value = 1.4 / 5 = 0.28 mg/m3
DNEL Long-term Inhalation value on human study = 0.28 mg/m3

No information on local effects (dermal and inhalation routes) are available.

GENERAL POPULATION
1. Acute / short term exposure - systemic effects
Dermal route: Based on the available data, the substance is not classified for this endpoint (LD50>2000 mg/kg).
Inhalation route: Due to the lack of information for the inhalation route, no DNEL is derived.
Oral route: This substance is classified for this endpoint, but this route of exposure is not relevant for general population.
2. Acute / short term exposure - local effects
No information on local effects (dermal and inhalation routes) are available.
3. Long-term exposure - systemic effects
3.1 Dermal DNEL
The registered substance will not be made available to the general public and so derivation of the DNEL values for this population group was considered to be inappropriate.
3.2 Inhalation DNEL
The registered substance will not be made available to the general public and so derivation of the DNEL values for this population group was considered to be inappropriate.
