Additional information
Justification for read-across
Adequate data on the skin and eye irritation potential of docosyl stearate (CAS 22413-03-2) were not available. The assessment was therefore based on studies conducted with analogue substances as part of a read-across approach, which is in accordance with Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006, Annex XI, 1.5. For each specific endpoint the source substance(s) structurally closest to the target substance is/are chosen for read-across, with due regard to the requirements of adequacy and reliability of the available data. Structural similarities and similarities in properties and/or activities of the source and target substance are the basis of read-across. A detailed justification for the analogue read-across approach is provided in the technical dossier (see IUCLID Section 13).
Skin irritation/corrosion
CAS 22413-03-2
A skin irritation study was performed according to OECD 404 with docosyl stearate (CAS 22413-03-2) (Kannami Laboratory, 2016). The skin corrosive and irritating potential of docosyl stearate (CAS 22413-03-2) was examined in three female Japanese White rabbits. 0.5 g of the pulverized test substance was put on a lint patch and moistened with water for injection uniformly and applied to the dorsal skin of one animal, where fur was clipped, for 3 minutes, 1 hour or 4 hours (initial test). Since no skin corrosive reaction was observed in the initial test, application was conducted to two additional animals for 4 hours (confirmatory test). The same lint patch without test item was also applied as a control substance in 4-hour application in both tests. The skin reactions were observed at 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after removal of the application (by 24 hours after removal of application in 3 minute-application in the initial test) and scored according to the Draize's criteria. The individual mean score was 0 each in erythema/eschar formation and edema formation.
CAS 93803-87-3
A study was performed according to OECD 404 to assess the skin irritation potential of 2-octyldodecyl isooctadecanoate (CAS 93803-87-3) (Notox, 1998b). 0.5 g test substance was applied to the shaved skin of rabbits under semi-occlusive conditions for 4 hours. 3/3 animals had well-defined erythema (score 2) at the 1-hr reading time point. The erythema had reduced in severity by 24 hours after exposure in 3/3 rabbits (score 1, 1, 1), and had cleared completely within 72 hours for 3/3 rabbits. The mean score for the 24, 48 and 72 evaluation times was 0.67, 0.33 and 0.33. No edema was observed in any animal at any time point.
CAS 17671-27-1
In a single exposure patch test, the undiluted test substance was applied to the back skin of 11 volunteers for 24 hours under occlusive conditions (BIO-HC, 2005). The skin irritation effects (erythema and edema) were assessed 30 minutes and 24 hours after patch removal. Slight to moderate erythema was observed at the test site in 3/10 subjects at the 30-minute reading time point and in 1/10 24 hours after patch removal. The positive control (1% sodium sulphate) was shown to be valid. 1/11 subjects were excluded as moderate erythema was noted at the negative control site (water).
Eye irritation
CAS 72576-80-8
An eye irritation GLP study was performed with isooctadecyl palmitate (CAS 72576-80-8) according to OECD 405 (Cosmepar, 1999). 0.1 mL of the unchanged test substance was instilled into one eye of each of 3 male New Zealand White rabbits. The animals were observed for 7 days and scoring according to Draize was performed 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours, and 7 days after application. The eyes were not rinsed. At the 1-hour reading time point, 3/3 rabbits showed slight to moderate conjunctival redness (scores 1, 1, 2) and 2/3 showed slight chemosis (scores 0, 1, 1). The chemosis had cleared by the 24-hour reading time point, while 3/3 animals still had slight conjunctival redness (scores 1, 1, 1). All eye irritation effects were fully reversible within 48 hours. The individual mean cornea opacity, iris, and chemosis scores over 24/48/72 hours were 0.0 for each rabbit. The individual mean conjunctivae scores over 24/48/72 hours were 0.33, 0.33 and 0.33. The test substance did not cause eye irritation under the conditions of the study.
CAS 93803-87-3
2-octyldodecyl isooctadecanoate (CAS 93803-87-3) was examined for its eye irritation potential in a GLP study performed according to OECD 405 (Notox, 1998c). 0.1 mL of undiluted test liquid test substance was instilled into one eye of each of 3 rabbits. The animals were observed for 72 hours and scoring according to Draize was performed 1, 24, 48, and 72 hours after application. At the 1-hour reading time point 3/3 rabbits showed slight conjunctival redness (score 1, 1, 1), which was still present in 1/3 rabbits at the 24-hour reading time point. The effect had cleared completely within 48 hours. No other eye irritation effects were observed in any rabbit at any time point. The individual mean cornea opacity, iris, and chemosis scores over 24/48/72-hour readings were 0.0 for each rabbit. The individual mean conjunctivae scores over 24/48/72-hour readings were 0.33, 0 and 0. The test substance did not cause eye irritation under the conditions of the study.
Overall conclusion for skin and eye irritation
Based on the available data with the target and the source substances, no skin or eye irritation potential is expected for the target substance docosyl stearate (CAS 22413-03-2).
Justification for classification or non-classification
According to Article 13 of Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006 "General Requirements for Generation of Information on Intrinsic Properties of substances", information on intrinsic properties of substances may be generated by means other than tests e.g. from information from structurally related substances (grouping or read-across), provided that conditions set out in Annex XI are met. Annex XI, "General rules for adaptation of this standard testing regime set out in Annexes VII to X” states that “substances whose physicochemical, toxicological and ecotoxicological properties are likely to be similar or follow a regular pattern as a result of structural similarity may be considered as a group, or ‘category’ of substances. This avoids the need to test every substance for every endpoint". Since the analogue concept is applied to docosyl stearate (CAS 22413-03-2), data will be generated from data for reference source substance(s) to avoid unnecessary animal testing. Additionally, once the analogue read-across concept is applied, substances will be classified and labelled on this basis.
The available data on skin and eye irritation do not meet the classification criteria according to Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 and are therefore conclusive but not sufficient for classification.
