Acute toxicity: via inhalation route
Link to relevant study records
- Endpoint:
- acute toxicity: inhalation
- Data waiving:
- exposure considerations
- Justification for data waiving:
- the study does not need to be conducted because exposure of humans via inhalation is not likely taking into account the vapour pressure of the substance and/or the possibility of exposure to aerosols, particles or droplets of an inhalable size
- Justification for type of information:
- JUSTIFICATION FOR DATA WAIVING
In accordance with section 8.5 of Column 2 of REACH Annex VIII, it is considered justified to omit this study on the grounds that testing is scientifically unjustified. Having assessed the likely routes of exposure, it is considered that testing via the inhalation route is not appropriate given that the particle size of the material is such that it is essentially non-respirable and the vapour pressure was calculated to be sufficiently low as to suggest that exposure to the substance via the inhalation route is not anticipated to occur during its envisaged life-cycle. Instead, acute toxicity data are provided for the oral and dermal routes.

- Sex:
- male/female
- Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
- Male and female (nulliparous and non-pregnant) New Zealand White rabbits were received from the supplier. The animals weighed 2.06 - 2.60 kg and were at least 12 weeks old and were individually housed upon arrival in stainless steel suspended cages with hardwood chip bedding. The animals were acclimated for at least 5 days prior to dosing. Water and feed were provided ad libitum. The temperature and humidity were maintained at 68 ± 5 °F and 30 - 70 %, respectively. Room lights were on a 12-hour light/dark cycle.
- Type of coverage:
- occlusive
- Vehicle:
- not specified
- Details on dermal exposure:
- The application site, not less than 10 % of the body surface, was prepared approximately 24 hours prior to dosing by clipping the skin of the trunk free of hair. DMBPC, as received from the Sponsor, was slightly moistened to form a paste and introduced under gauze patches (two single layers thick) and applied directly to the clipped skin of 10 animals. The animals were immobilised and the patches were secured in place by wrapping the entire trunk of the animal with an impervious bandage. Test sites were secured to prevent the animals from ingesting the test substance. After the completion of the 24-hour exposure period, the wrapping was removed and the skin was gently wiped to remove any test substance still remaining.
- Duration of exposure:
- 24 hours
- Doses:
- 2000 mg/kg
- No. of animals per sex per dose:
- 5
- Control animals:
- not required
- Details on study design:
- Five animals/sex were dosed at 2000 mg/kg (limit test). The animals were observed frequently during the first day and then a careful clinical examination was made at least once a day through 14 days. The test site of each animal was also observed for signs of erythema and oedema after the exposure period according to the Draize Scale for Scoring Skin Reactions. Animals were weighed at Day 0 (prior to dose administration), Day 7 and Day 14. Changes in body weights were calculated and recorded. At the end of the study, all animals were sacrificed by an injectable barbiturate and a gross necropsy was performed.
