Test animals

- rabbit
- Strain:
- other: Chbb:HM SPF albino
- Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
- Animal room with filtered air at a temperature of 20°C ± 3°C, relative humidity between 30 % and 70 % and air changes 10 times/ hour. The room was illuminated to give a cycle of 12 hours Iight and 12 hours darkness. Light was on from 6 am to 6 pm.
During a pre-period of at least one week and throughout the experiment the rabbits were caged individually in PPO cages (floor area: 2576 sq. cm) with perforated floor.
A pelleted complete rabbit diet "Altromin 2123" from Altromin, D-32791 Lage, Lippe, was available ad libitum. Analyses for major nutritive
components and relevant possible contaminants are performed regularly on the diet. Certificates of analysis are retained.
Drinking water ad libitum.
Test system
- Type of coverage:
- semiocclusive
- Preparation of test site:
- shaved
- Vehicle:
- unchanged (no vehicle)
- Controls:
- not required
- Amount / concentration applied:
- Initial test:
0.5mL was applied to a 16-layer gauze patch (2.5 x 2.5 cm), the patch was placed on the appropriate anterior test field and secured semi-occlusively with adhesive Gothaplast tape (2.5 cm). After an exposure time of 3 min. the first patch was removed, the test field was marked and the treated skin was cleaned with mild soap and lukewarm water.
As no reaction was observed a second patch with 0.5 mL test item was applied on the median test field of the rabbit back. In order to improve the security of the patch, the trunk of the animal was additionally wound with 5 cm wide adhesive Gothaplast tape. After an exposure time of 1h. the second patch was removed, the test field was marked and the treated skin was cleaned with mild soap and lukewarm water. The skin reaction was first assessed immediately after the termination of exposure. Also after 1 h. no corrosive effects were observed so that the exposure time could be extended to 4 h.
An amount of 0.5 mL of the test item was applied on a third patch and put on the posterior test field of the animal. Adhesive Gothaplast tape (2.5 cm and 5 cm wide) served again as the semi-occlusive securing. After a 4-hour exposure time the third patch was removed, the test field was marked and the treated skin was cleaned with mild soap and lukewarm water. The first assessment of the skin reaction took place again immediately after the termination of exposure.
Confirmatory test:
Likewise for the confirmatory test the animals were physically restrained on a test table and the back of each rabbit was divided in four test Fields. Always the anterior right field was selected as the test area for the test item. An amount of 0.5 ml of the test item was applied on a 16-layer gauze patch (2.5 cm x 2.5 cm) and the patch was placed on the appropriate test field. The gauze patch was secured semi-occlusively with adhesive Gothaplast tape (2.5 cm wide) and fixed with Gothaplast tape (5 cm wide) loosely wound round the trunk of the animals. After an exposure time of 4 h. the tape and patch were removed, the test field was marked and the treated skin was cleaned with mild soap and lukewarm water. - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- Initial test 3 minutes - 1st patch ; 4hours for 2nd and 3rd patches ;
Confirmatory test - 4hours - Observation period:
- Immediately after removal of each patch and 1h, 24h, 48h and 72h after termination of exposure
- Number of animals:
- 3
- Details on study design:
- The skin irritant effect of 4-methyl-4-phenylpentan-2-ol was investigated according to the method recommended in the OECD Guideline No. 404, "Acute Dermal Irritation/ Corrosion", 2002, the commission directive 2004/73/EC "B.4. Acute Toxicity: Dermal Irritation/Corrosion", 2004, and OECD document "Harmonised Integrated Classification System for Human Health and Environmental Hazards of Chemical Substances and Mixtures", 2001.
During an initial test using one female albino rabbit a sequential application (exposure time 3 min., 1 h. and 4 h.) of4-methyl-4-phenylpentan-2-ol
was carried out on one site of the left back area each time. The skin was examined for signs of irritation immediately after application and 1h., 24h., 48h. and 72h after the termination of exposure on day 1 as well as on days 7, 14 and 21. Since the animal did show well-defined signs of skin irritation but no full thickness destruction of the skin within the observation period of 21 days it was decided to carry out a confirmatory test with two additional animals in order to allow a categorization of the test item based on the classification criteria.
Two female albino rabbits were exposed to the test item at one skin site on the back during the confirmatory test. After a 4-hour exposure time the test item was removed and the skin was examined 1 h., 24 h., 48 h. and 72 h. after the termination of exposure on day 1 as well as on days 7 and 14.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- slightly irritating
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- According to regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, 4-methyl-4-phenylpentan-2-ol is not classified as a skin irritant. All mean values for erythema and oedema were < 2.3 and effects were fully reversible within 14 days in 2 of 3 animals.
- Executive summary:
During an initial test using one female albino rabbit a sequential application (exposure time 3 min., 1 h. and 4 h.) demonstrated well defined signs of skin irritation, but no full thickness destruction of the skin, within the observation period of 21 days. A confirmatory test was carried out with two additional animals in order to allow a categorization of the test item based on the classification criteria. Consequently, two female albino rabbits were exposed to the test item at one skin site on the back during this confirmatory test. After a 4-hour exposure time the test item was removed and the skin was examined 1 h., 24 h., 48 h. and 72 h. after the termination of exposure on day 1 as well as on days 7 and 14. Skin reactions ranging from slight to well-defined were also observed in these two additional animals. All effects were fully reversible within 21 days. Under the experimental conditions described in this report the mean scores after the 4-hour exposure were:
Animal No. Erythema Oedema
3137 2.00 1.00
3119 1.00 0.00
3120 2.00 0.00
Under the experimental conditions the mean score for erythema was 1.7 and for oedema 0.3.
According to the criteria of the regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, 4 -methyl-4-phenylpentan-2-ol is not classified as a skin irritant - all mean values for erythema and oedema were < 2.3 and effects were fully reversible within 14 days in 2 of 3 animals. According to UN GHS, classification as mild irritantion Cat 3 is needed.
