Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Administrative data

Endpoint:
sub-chronic toxicity: dermal
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
a sub-chronic toxicity study (90 days) does not need to be conducted because a reliable chronic toxicity study is available, conducted with an appropriate species and route of administration
Justification for type of information:
The rules for adaptation in Column 2 of the REACH Annexes VIII and IX state that, “Testing by the dermal route is appropriate if…(1) inhalation of the substance is unlikely…”. It also states that, “Testing by the dermal route is appropriate if: (1) skin contact in production and/or use is likely; and (2) the physicochemical properties suggest a significant rate of absorption through the skin; and (3) one of the following conditions is met: toxicity is observed in the acute dermal toxicity test at lower doses than in the oral toxicity test, or systemic effects or other evidence of absorption is observed in skin and/or eye irritation studies, or in vitro tests indicate significant dermal absorption, or significant dermal toxicity or dermal penetration is recognised for structurally-related substances”. As these conditions are not met and the inhalation route of exposure is considered most likely, testing for chronic dermal toxicity has been waived.
