Applicant's summary and conclusion

Executive summary:

The chemical evaluated ( 3-(isodecyloxy)propylammonium acetate )belongs to cationic surfactants. The literature sources mentioned that cationic surfactants are substances of low acute toxicity and exhibit strongly irritation effect exhibit on the mucous membrane of the gastrointestinal tract (SFT 1991,SCCSand others).

This is in agreement with findings of above mentioned studies.

 

Isomaa and Ekman (1975) stated thatadministrations of quaternary ammonium surfactant to pregnant mice in an ip dose corresponding to 10 or 33% of the LD50 increased the incidence of malformations, principally cleft palate and minor skeletal defects in the skull and sternum. Cationic surfactants are known to affect the permeability of cells and tissues and it is possible that the embryotoxic and teratogenic effects are due to a disturbance of the functional integrity of the placenta.

This is not the case of our chemical.

 

Isomaa (1975)studied the absorption, distribution and excretion of orally administered [14C]CTAB, (the same quaternary ammonium surfactant mentioned above), in female rats. About 80% of the dose of radioactivity was found in the gastro-intestinal tract 8 hr after administration, only small amounts were found in the blood plasma and about 2% of the administered radioactivity was excreted in the bile during the first 12 hr after treatment. The low levels of radioactivity in the serum and bile, together with the large amounts of radioactivity found in the gastro-intestinal tract, indicated poor intestinal absorption of CTAB. Only small amounts of radioactivity were found in the liver, kidneys, spleen, heart, lungs and skeletal muscle, and the tissue radioactivity declined rapidly. Within 3 days of ingestion, 92% of the administered radioactivity had been excreted in the faeces and 1% in the urine.

These findings are in large extent in agreement with the resulst of studies mentioned in part 2 of assessment report.

 

QSAR models estimated for the chemical evaluated the poor dermal absorption, very good absorption from gastrointestinal tract and for bioavailability the score 0 (Lipinskiscores of 0 or 1 means that the substance may be bioavailable).

With this last statement we could identify.
