Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

not irritating

Remarks:

Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU

Conclusions:

Based on the read-across approach from experimental data on the analogue isobornyl acetate, dextro alpha fenchyl acetate was determined to be not irritating to the skin in accordance with CLP Regulation (EC) no. 1272/2008 and as irritating to the skin (Xi, R38) according to Directive 67/548/EEC.

Executive summary:

An in-vivo skin irritation test was performed on the analogue substance isobornyl acetate according to OECD Guideline 404. Three New Zealand White rabbits were exposed to 0.5 mL (unchanged) test sample under semi-occlusive conditions for 4 hours. After patch removal, the rabbits were observed at 30 -60 min, 24, 48 and 72 hours and 7 days. Two rabbits showed erythema score of 2 at mean 24 -72h time period, which was fully reversible by day 7. No edema was observed. Based on these results, the read-across approach was applied and dextro alpha fenchyl acetate was determined to be not irritating to the skin in accordance with CLP Regulation (EC) no. 1272/2008 and as irritating to the skin (Xi, R38) according to Directive 67/548/EEC.
