Skin Sensitization:
Various studies have been investigated for assessing the dermal sensitization potential of Geranyl propionate to a greater or lesser extent. The studies are based on in vivo experiments in humans along with predicted data for target chemical and its structurally similar read across substances, Allyl butyrate[CAS: 2051-78-7],3,7-dimethylocta-2,6-dien-1-yl 2-methylpropanoate(Geranyl isobutyrate) [CAS:2345-26-8] and 3,7-dimethylocta-2,6-dien-1-yl butyrate(Geranyl butyrate)[CAS: 106-29-6]. The predicted data using the OECD QSAR toolbox has also been compared with the experimental data.
Skin sensitization test was conducted on 25 human volunteers(Food and Cosmetics Toxicology, Volume 12, Issues 7–8, December 1974, Page 897) to assess the dermal sensitization potential of Geranyl propionate. Geranyl propionate 4% in petrolatum was applied on the skin of 25 human volunteers and then observed for dermal reactions (duration not mentioned).
The test material failed to induce skin sensitizing effects on 25 volunteers. Hence, Geranyl propionate was considered to be not sensitizing to human skin.
The skin sensitization potential of Geranyl propionate was estimated by SSS (2017) using OECD QSAR toolbox v3.4 with log kow as the primary descriptor. Geranyl propionate was predicted to be non sensitizing to the skin of male and female Hartley guinea pigs.
Skin sensitization effects were also estimated by four different models i.e, Battery, Leadscope, SciQSAR and CASE Ultra used within Danish QSAR database for Geranyl propionate. Based on estimation, no skin sensitization reactions were observed in guinea pigs and humans. Therefore, Geranyl propionate was considered to be non sensitizing.
The experimental and estimated data are in agreement with each other; substantiate the claim that Geranyl propionate is indeed not sensitizing to skin.
These results are further supported by the experimental study summarized in Food and Cosmetics Toxicology, Volume 15, Issue 6, December 1977, Pages 613-
614; for the structurally similar read across substance, Allyl butyrate[CAS: 2051-78-7].Allyl butyrate 4% in petrolatum was applied on the skin of 28 human volunteers and then observed for dermal reactions (duration not mentioned).
The test material failed to induce skin sensitizing effects on 28 volunteers. Hence, Allyl butyrate was considered to be not sensitizing to human skin.
These results are ably supported by the experimental study summarized inFood and Cosmetics Toxicology Volume 12, Issues 7–8, December 1974, Pages 889; for thestructurally similar read across substance, 3,7-dimethylocta-2,6-dien-1-yl butyrate(Geranyl butyrate)[CAS: 106-29-6]. Geranyl butyrate 4% in petrolatum was applied on the skin of 25 human volunteers and then observed for dermal reactions (duration not mentioned).
The test material failed to induce skin sensitizing effects on 25 volunteers. Hence, Geranyl butyrate (CAS No.106-29-6) was considered to be not sensitizing to human skin.
The above results are also supported by the experimental studysummarized in Fd Cosmet. Toxicol, Vol. 13, pp. 449-457, 1975; for thestructurally similar read across substance,3,7-dimethylocta-2,6-dien-1-yl 2-methylpropanoate(Geranyl isobutyrate) [CAS:2345-26-8]. 3, 7-dimethylocta-2,6-dien-1-yl 2-methylpropanoate was tested at the concentration of 10% in petrolatum in 25 human volunteers. No skin sensitizing effect was observed in any 25 human volunteers. Therefore, 3, 7-dimethylocta-2,6-dien-1-yl 2-methylpropanoate(2345-26-8)was considered to be non sensitizing in human skin.
Based on the available data for the target as well as read across substances and applying the weight of evidence approach,Geranyl propionate was not sensitizing to skin.Comparing the above annotations with the criteria of CLP regulation, test chemical can be classified under the category “Not Classified”.

Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no study available
Justification for classification or non-classification
Available data forGeranyl propionate suggests that it is not likely to cause any dermal sensitization to skin.
Geranyl propionate can be considered to be not sensitizer to skin and can be classified under the category “Not Classified” as per CLP regulation.
