Noncancer Assessment

Estimate of Chronic Reference Dose for Oral Exposure (RfD)Last Updated: 09/30/2010
See attachment to the assessment's appendix for quantitative screening values.


Estimate of Subchronic Reference Dose for Oral Exposure (RfD)Last Updated: 09/30/2010
System RfD (mg/kg-day) Basis PoD UF Confidence
Whole Body Effects 5 x 10-1 Decreased body weight changes in females NOAEL : 677 mg/kg-day 1000 Medium
Species Studied: Rat
Duration: 7 weeks
Principal Study: NCI 1979
Note: Because the study administered 4-chloro-2-methylaniline hydrochloride, the subchronic RfD is converted to reflect the molecular weight difference between 4-chloro-2-methylamiline and the salt form.



Estimate of Chronic Reference Concentration for Inhalation Exposure (RfC)Last Updated: 09/30/2010
Data are inadequate to derive a chronic RfC.


Estimate of Subchronic Reference Concentration for Inhalation Exposure (RfC)Last Updated: 09/30/2010
Data are inadequate to derive a subchronic RfC.


Cancer Assessment

Weight of Evidence for CancerLast Updated: 09/30/2010
LI - Likely to be carcinogenic to humans


Estimate of Carcinogenic Risk from Oral ExposureLast Updated: 09/30/2010
Oral Slope Factor: 1 x 10-1 per mg/kg-day
Tumor site(s):
Cancer: Hemangiosarcoma or hemangioma
Species Studied: Mouse
Duration: 18 months
Principal Study: Weisburger et al. 1978
Note: Because the study administered 4-chloro-2-methylaniline hydrochloride, the oral slope factor is converted to reflect the molecular weight difference between 4-chloro-2-methylamiline and the salt form.


Estimate of Carcinogenic Risk from Inhalation ExposureLast Updated: 09/30/2010
Data are inadequate to derive an inhalation unit risk.
