- REPORTING FORMAT FOR THE ANALOGUE APPROACH
1. HYPOTHESIS FOR THE ANALOGUE APPROACH
The target substance FATTY ACIDS, COCO, ISO-BU ESTERS (CAS 91697-43-7) and the source substance FATTY ACIDS, C16-18, ISOBUTYL ESTERS (CAS 85865-69-6) are both Short Chain Alcohol Esters (SCAE C2-C8) composed by a fatty acid (C16-C18) and a C4 alcohol (isobutanol).
The source and the target substance show therefore the same reactive groups and a similar composition. A read-across to the source is therefore justified.
2. SOURCE AND TARGET CHEMICAL(S) (INCLUDING INFORMATION ON PURITY AND IMPURITIES)
Both target and source substances are fatty acid esters produced by chemical reaction of an alcohol (isobutanol) with organic acids (e. g. stearic acid) in the presence of an acid catalyst. The esterification reaction is started by a transfer of a proton from the acid catalyst to the acid to form an alkyloxonium ion. The carboxylic acid is protonated on its carbonyl oxygen followed by a nucleophilic addition of a molecule of the alcohol to a carbonyl carbon of acid. An intermediate product is formed. This intermediate product loses a water molecule and proton to give an ester. Monoesters are the final product of esterification.
3. ANALOGUE APPROACH JUSTIFICATION
Since both target and source substances are fatty acid esters produced by chemical reaction of an alcohol (isobutanol) with an organic acid and therefore share similar/overlapping structural features and functional groups, it is justified to use a read across approach. The source substance has been registered already and its inhalation acute toxicity has been investigated using a grouping of substance and read across approach. All available acute inhalation toxicity studies within this category resulted in an acute inhalation LC50 > 5 mg/L air. It has been concluded that no adverse effects are observed for Fatty acids, C16-18, isobutyl esters (CAS No. 85865-69-6).
The same behaviour is predicted for the target substance FATTY ACIDS, COCO, ISO-BU ESTERS (CAS 91697-43-7) .

- GENERATION OF TEST ATMOSPHERE / CHAMBER DESCRIPTION
- Exposure apparatus: The design of the exposure chamber is based on the flow past nose-pnly inhalation chamber (Am.Ind.Hyg Assoc.J. 44(12): 923-928, 1983). The chamber consists of animal sections with eight animal ports each. Each animal port has its own atmosphere inlet and exhaust outlet.
- Method of holding animals in test chamber: Animals are placed in restraining tubes, which is then connected to the exposure chamber.
- Source and rate of air: The theoretical air flow was at least 1L/min.
- System of generating aerosols: An aerosol was generated by nebulization of the test substance by means of a nebulizer (type 950,
Hospitak Inc., Lindenhurst, NY, USA). The primary aerosol was diluted with pressurized air before it entered the exposure chamber. The mean total airflow was 16 L/min. From the exposure chamber the test atmosphere was passed through a filter before it was released to the exhaust of the fume hood.
- Method of conditioning air: The direction of the flow of the test atmosphere guarantees a freshly generated atmosphere for each individual animal.
- Temperature, humidity, pressure in air chamber: The temperature of the atmosphere was between 20.0 and 20.7 °C and relative humidity was between 28 and 30%. These conditions were considered appropriate for the relatively short 4 hours exposure duration.
