not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated informationCriteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The test chemical 3- Phenylpropyl acetate (CAS No: 122-72-5) was considered to be non-irritating to the skin of 5 adult human patients.
Executive summary:

Skin irritation study was conducted on 5 adult human patients to evaluate the irritating potential of the 3- Phenylpropyl acetate (CAS No: 122-72-5)as a preliminary study to a maximization test,.

 

The test material was tested at 8% in petrolatum for 48 hours as a closed patch and observations were made.

 

On the basis of observations made, 3-Phenylpropyl acetate (CAS No: 122-72-5) was considered as non-irritating to the skin of humans.
