Endpoint:
acute toxicity: dermal
Type of information:

Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: see 'Remark'
Remarks:
There are various supporting studies available that depict the LD50 value to be well over the range (2000 mg/Kg body weight). Some values have also be taken from structurally similar substances which too prove that 4-(2,6,6-trimethylcyclohex-1-ene-1-yl)-but-3-ene-2-one shall not exhibit acute dermal toxicity.

Additional information

Acute toxicity oral:-

Details of other toxic effects(LD50 - Lethal dose, 50 percent kill) to rat not reported. However, the lethal dose value (LD50) causing acute oral toxicity is 4590 mg/kg. This value indicate that 4-(2,6,6-trimethylcyclohex-1-ene-1-yl)-but-3-ene-2-one is non toxic by oral route.

Acute toxicity inhalation:-

Inhalation toxicity (LC50) of 4-(2,6,6-trimethylcyclohex-1-ene-1-yl)-but-3-ene-2-one was examined for 4 hrs.in male Swiss Webster mouse at a dose concentration of 538.488 ppm.This value suggest that the chemical 4-(2,6,6-trimethylcyclohex-1-ene-1-yl)-but-3-ene-2-one is non toxic by inhalation route.

Justification for selection of acute toxicity – oral endpoint
