Skin irritation / corrosion
Administrative data
- Endpoint:
- skin irritation: in vivo
- Type of information:
- migrated information: read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- April 1992
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: see 'Remark'
- Remarks:
- GLP and guideline compliant study. Methyl linoleate (CAS# 112-63-0) was used as a structural analogue read-across substance for skin irritation hazard identification of ethyl linoleate. It can be expected that methyl linoleate would exert similar characteristics in skin irritation. Upon activity of dermal esterases, methyl linoleate would be cleaved into linoleic acid and methanol, representing sufficient similarity to the metabolites linoleic acid and ethanol, resulting from cleavage of ethyl linoleate.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- irritating
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- Based on the test results the test substance hast to be classified as skin irritant.
- Executive summary:
The undiluted test substance was tested for acute dermal irritation on the dorsal shaved skin of three rabbits in a dose of 0.5 ml. The contact time under semi-occlusive conditions lasted four hours.
Slight to moderate erythema and edema were observed during the first 72 hours after exposure. One week after exposure the skin of all three experimental animals showed eschar. The irritation effects of one experimental animal reversed wihtin 7 days. The skin of this rabbit showed eschar. The observed effects of the other two experimental animals reversed completely within 22 days.
The test substance proved to be moderately irritating to the skin according to the conditions applied.
