Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Administrative data

Endpoint:
skin irritation / corrosion
Remarks:
in vivo
Type of information:
migrated information: read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
Dec 1995
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: see 'Remark'
Remarks:
GLP - Guideline study, tested with the source substance Hexanoic acid, 2-ethyl-, 2,2-bis [ [(2-ethyl-1-oxohexyl)oxy] methyl] -1,3-propanediyl ester. According to the ECHA guidance document "Practical guide 6: How to report read-across and categories (March 2010)", the reliability was changed from RL1 to RL2 to reflect the fact that this study was conducted on a read-across substance.

Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
TEST ANIMALS

- Sex: male
- Weight at study initiation: about 2.5 - 3 kg
- Housing: in individual polysterene cages of standardized dimensions with perforated floor
- Diet: ALIMENT EXTRALABO C15 Ets Pietrement (77482 Provins), ad libitum

- Acclimation period: 18 days

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature (°C): 18 - 22
- Humidity (%): 50 - 80
- Air changes (per hr): 3000 m³
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12/12

Test system

Type of coverage:
semiocclusive
Preparation of test site:
other: shaved and abraded
Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Controls:
other: not required, untreated sites of the same animal served as control
Amount / concentration applied:
TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 0.5 mL
Duration of treatment / exposure:
4 h
Observation period:
14 days
Reading time points: 4, 24, 48 and 72 h and 4 and 7 days
Number of animals:
3 males
Details on study design:
TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: left side (intact) and right side (scarified9) of the animal
- Site preparation: before the test, the skin sites were shaved with shears in order to cover a surface of about 14x14 cm. While the left side was intact, three parallel scarifications about 2.5 cm long were created on the right site.
- Type of wrap if used: sterile gauze patch (2.5x2.5 cm) held in place by adhesive strips (10 cm wide; Urgocrepe Fournier)

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): any trace of substance was eliminated with distilled water or, if necessary, with 5% SDS solution followed by careful rinsing
- Time after start of exposure: 4 h
