Results and discussion
Any other information on results incl. tables
Non specific chamber loss rate
During a 2 hour period, chamber concentrations decreased without a live rat from 2148 to 823 ppm (n=2) of isobutyl acetate. The non specific chamber loss was initially (first 45 minutes) more rapid than in a the final phase.
Chemical exposure
During exposure of animals to isobutyl acetate, the decline in chamber concentrations was substantial over the 2 hour exposure period. Experiments with 7 animals resulted in a decrease of chamber exposure concentrations from 1912 to 145 ppm (mean value, n=7).
Blood concentrations
Isobutyl acetate, isobutanol, and isobutyric acid were analyzed in blood samples of 4 to 6 animals.

The blood concentrations of the parent isobutyl acetate were found to be 16.1 µM at 5 min and 7.6 µM at 90 min with maximal concentrations of 31.5 and 24.9 µM at 10 and 40 min respectively. For the hydrolysis product isobutanol, higher blood levels were determined. The blood concentrations of isobutanol were 35.4 µM at 5 min and 10.6 µM at 90 min with peak concentrations of 86.5 and 101.6 µM at 10 and 20 min. Isobutyric acid, the oxidation product of isobutanol, showed lower blood levels (6.99 µM at 5 min, 6.2 µM at 90 min, peak concentration 12.52 µM at 20 min).
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Interpretation of results (migrated information): no bioaccumulation potential based on study results
Isobutyl acetate is readily absorbed from the respiratory tract. Maximum blood concentrations are reached at 10 and 40 minutes. After 90 min a substantial decrease in blood concentrations can be observed. During the complete observation/exposure period, the levels of the hydrolysis product isobutanol were higher then the levels of the parent isobutyl acetate (1.5 to 6 fold). Isobutyric acid (oxidation product of isobutanol) was found at lower levels (approximately half of the peak exposure of isobutyl acetate). - Executive summary:
The respiratory bioavailability of isobutyl acetate was studied in rats in a combined gas uptake inhalation measurements, plethysmography and a blood sampling experiment. Male SD rats with jugular vein-implanted cannulas exteriorized through a gas uptake inhalation chamber were individually exposed for 2 hrs to a targeted initial concentration of 2000 ppm of isobutyl acetate while simultaneously monitoring respiratory rates with a body-only plethysmograph (head-only exposures). Exposure was performed in a closed, recirculating 8 L gas uptake exposure chamber.
Blood samples (10) were collected during each exposure for 90 minutes for analysis of isobutyl acetate as parent compound and isobutanol and isobutyric acid as metabolites.
Maximum blood levels of isobutylacetate were reached after 10 minutes (31.5 µM = 3.66 mg/L) with a second peak at 40 minutes (24.9 µM = 2.89 mg/L). At 90 minutes blood concentrations had declined to 7.6 µM (0.88 mg/L) (OPP/ACC 2004).
Analyzed metabolites were isobutanol and isobutyric acid. The maximum blood concentration of isobutanol were 86.5 µM (6.41 mg/L) and 101.6 µM (7.53 mg/L) measured at 10 and 20 min respectively. Until the end of the observation period (90 min) blood levels decreased to 10.6 µM (0.79 mg/L).
Blood levels of isobutyric acid were lower with 5.99 µM (0.53 mg/L) at 5 min, 12.52 µM (1.1 mg/L) at 20 min (peak concentration) and 6.2 µM (0.55 mg/L) at 90 min.
