Dermal absorption
Administrative data
- Endpoint:
- dermal absorption
- Type of information:
- (Q)SAR
- Adequacy of study:
- supporting study
- Reliability:
- 4 (not assignable)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: see 'Remark'
- Remarks:
- Model is based on accepted principles of skin permeation and diffusion of chemicals through a semi-permeable membrane. It was validated with an extensive database of experimentally measured permeation coefficients and is considered valid for substances with log Kow values in the range from 0 to 4.
- Justification for type of information:
- QSAR prediction: migrated from IUCLID 5.6

Any other information on results incl. tables
The model estimates the permeation rate for ethoxypropyl acetate liquid to be 0.0497 mg/cm2/hr. For comparison purposes, the model estimates the permeation rate for methoxypropyl acetate to be 0.0505mg/cm3/hr and for the parent glycol ethers ethoxypropanol and methoxypropanol to be 0.223 and 0.169mg/cm2/hr respectively. This indicates that the parent ethers can absorb significantly more rapidly than the esters, by a factor of 3 -4 and that the length of the alkyl chain, at least methyl compared to ethyl has little effect on skin absorption.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Executive summary:
A QSAR model predicts that the permeation rate of ethoxypropyl acetate will be 0.050mg/cm2/hr based on the physicochemical properties of the substance. The model predicts that the absorption is a factor of 3 -4x lower than that of the parent glycol ether.
