Results and discussion
Effect levels
- Key result
- Dose descriptor:
- other: local toxicity
- Basis for effect level:
- other: highly irritant after repeated exposure under occlusive conditions; no systemic toxicity reported
- Remarks on result:
- not measured/tested
Any other information on results incl. tables
Four to 6 times repeated 24-hr occlusive exposure to 0.3 ml isobutanol caused severe edema and erythema with eschar formation, which persisted throughout the 72-hr post-observation period. Isobutanol was therefore judged to be "highly irritant”.
