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:
47 mg/m³
Most sensitive endpoint:
repeated dose toxicity
Route of original study:
By inhalation
DNEL related information
Overall assessment factor (AF):
6
Modified dose descriptor starting point:
NOAEC
Value:
280 mg/m³
Explanation for the modification of the dose descriptor starting point:
The DNEL for systemic effects via the inhalation route is determined on the basis of read-across of the 90-day inhalation NOAEC for trimethoxy(methyl) silane (557 mg/m³). No correction for molecular weight is applied for read-across. The following corrections were made: correction for experimental exposure duration (6 h/d to 8 h/d): 6/8 (ECHA default), correction for respiratory volume (worker): 6.7 m³/day/10 m³/day (ECHA default). Therefore the corrected NOAEC for repeated-dose systemic effects via the inhalation route is: 557*(6 h/ 8 h) *(6.7 m³/day/10 m³/day) =280 mg/m³.

The following corrections were made: correction for exposure duration: 6 h/8 h (ECHA default for workers), correction for respiratory volume: 0.38 m³/kg (ECHA default, rat, 8 hour). The corrected NOAEL(dermal) is therefore: (557*(6 h/8 h) *0.38 m³/kg) = 158.7 mg/kg/day

Dermal route

The DNEL for systemic effects via the dermal route is determined on the basis of route-to-route extrapolation from the inhalation NOAEC for trimethoxy(methyl)silane (557 mg/m3) from the 90-day study in rats.

No correction for molecular weight is applied for read-across. The following corrections were made:

Correction for experimental exposure duration: 6 h/8 h (ECHA default for workers)

Correction for respiratory volume: 0.38 m3/kg (ECHA default, rat, 8 hour)

 

The corrected NOAEL(dermal) is therefore: (557*(6 h/8 h)*0.38 m3/kg) = 158.7 mg/kg bw/day

 

The following assessment factors were applied to the corrected NOAEL:

Assessment factor for route to route extrapolation (inhalation to dermal): 1 (ECHA default)

Assessment factor for allometric scaling (rat to human): 4 (ECHA default)

Assessment factor for extrapolation of exposure duration (sub-chronic to chronic): 2 (ECHA default)

Assessment factor for interspecies differences (systemic): 1 (ECETOC default)

Assessment factor for intraspecies differences (systemic): 3 (ECETOC default)

 

The overall DNEL (repeated-dose – systemic – dermal) is therefore 158.7/(1*4*2*1*3) =6.6 mg/kg bw/day

 

Inhalation route

The DNEL for systemic effects via the inhalation route is determined on the basis of read-across of the 90-day inhalation NOAEC for trimethoxy(methyl)silane (557 mg/m3).

No correction for molecular weight is applied for read-across. The following corrections were made:

Correction for experimental exposure duration (6 h/d to 8 h/d): 6/8 (ECHA default)

Correction for respiratory volume (worker): 6.7 m3/day/10 m3/day (ECHA default)

Therefore the corrected NOAEC for repeated-dose local effects via the inhalation route is:

557*(6 h/ 8 h)*(6.7 m3/day/10 m3/day) = 280 mg/m3.

The assessment factors used to determine the DNEL (inhalation) were selected on the following basis:

Assessment factor for extrapolation of exposure duration (sub-chronic to chronic): 2 (ECHA default)

Assessment factor for interspecies differences: 1 (ECECTOC default)

Assessment factor for intraspecies differences: 3 (ECETOC default)

The overall DNEL (repeated-dose – systemic – inhalation) is therefore: 280 mg/m3/(2*1*3)= 47 mg/m3

Dermal route

The DNEL for systemic effects via the dermal route is determined on the basis of route-to-route extrapolation from the inhalation NOAEC for trimethoxy(methyl)silane (557 mg/m3) from the 90-day study in rats.

No correction for molecular weight is applied for read-across. The following corrections were made:

Correction for exposure duration: 6 h/24 h (ECHA default for consumers)

Correction for number of exposures per week: 5/7 (study data)

Correction for respiratory volume: 1.15 m3/kg (ECHA default, rat, 24 hour)

 

The corrected NOAEL(dermal) is therefore: (557*(6 h/24 h)*(5/7)*1.15 m3/kg) = 114.4 mg/kg/day

 

The following assessment factors were applied to the corrected NOAEL:

Assessment factor for route to route extrapolation (inhalation to dermal): 1 (ECHA default)

Assessment factor for allometric scaling (rat to human): 4 (ECHA default)

Assessment factor for extrapolation of exposure duration (sub-chronic to chronic): 2 (ECHA default)

Assessment factor for interspecies differences (systemic): 1 (ECETOC default)

Assessment factor for intraspecies differences (systemic): 5 (ECETOC default)

 

The overall DNEL (repeated-dose – systemic – dermal - consumer) is therefore 114.4/(1*4*2*1*5) = 2.9 mg/kg/day

Oral route

The DNEL for systemic effects via the oral route is determined on the basis of the 28-day oral NOAEL for MTMS (50 mg/kg/day).

The assessment factors used to determine the DNEL (oral) were selected on the following basis:

There are insufficient data to determine whether effects are in/dependent of exposure duration, therefore an assessment factor for extrapolation of exposure duration (sub-acute to chronic) has been applied.

Assessment factor for extrapolation of exposure duration (sub-acute to chronic): 6 (ECHA default)

Assessment factor for allometric scaling (rat to human): 4 (ECHA default)

Assessment factor for interspecies differences: 1 (ECECTOC default)

Assessment factor for intraspecies differences: 5 (ECETOC default)

The overall DNEL (repeated-dose – systemic – oral) is therefore: 50 mg/kg/day/(6*4*1*5)= 0.42 mg/kg/day

Inhalation route

The DNEL for systemic effects via the inhalation route is determined on the basis of read-across of the 90-day inhalation NOAEC for trimethoxy(methyl)silane (557 mg/m3).

No correction for molecular weight is applied for read-across. The following corrections were made:

Correction for experimental exposure duration (6 h/d to 24 h/d): 6/24 (ECHA default)

Correction for number of exposures per week: 5 d/7 d (study data)

Therefore the corrected NOAEC for repeated-dose local effects via the inhalation route is:

557*(6 h/ 24 h)*(5 d/7 d) =99.5 mg/m3.

The assessment factors used to determine the DNEL (inhalation) were selected on the following basis:

Assessment factor for extrapolation of exposure duration (sub-chronic to chronic): 2 (ECHA default)

Assessment factor for interspecies differences: 1 (ECECTOC default)

Assessment factor for intraspecies differences: 5 (ECETOC default)

The overall DNEL (repeated-dose – systemic – inhalation) is therefore: 99.5 mg/m3/(2*1*5)= 10 mg/m3
