Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Toxicological information

Eye irritation

Administrative data

Endpoint:
eye irritation: in vivo
Type of information:
(Q)SAR
Adequacy of study:
weight of evidence
Reliability:
3 (not reliable)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
results derived from a valid (Q)SAR model, but not (completely) falling into its applicability domain, with adequate and reliable documentation / justification
Justification for type of information:
1. SOFTWARE
OECD QSAR Toolbox

2. MODEL
OECD QSAR Toolbox v4.3.1

3. SMILES OR OTHER IDENTIFIERS USED AS INPUT FOR THE MODEL
CCC(=O)C(C)=O

4. SCIENTIFIC VALIDITY OF THE (Q)SAR MODEL
- Defined endpoint: Eye irritation
- Unambiguous algorithm: Mode value from the 5 nearest neighbours
- Defined domain of applicability: log Kow: from -0.67 to -0.18, target is out of domain
- Appropriate measures of goodness-of-fit and robustness and predictivity: The prediction is based on 5 values, 3 of them (60.0%) equal to predicted value. Prediction confidence is measured by the p-value: 0.000769.
- Mechanistic interpretation: Prediction developed based on eye irritation/corrosion inclusion rules by BfR with subcategorisation by substance type, chemical elements and structural similarity

5. APPLICABILITY DOMAIN
- Descriptor domain: Prediction developed based on eye irritation/corrosion inclusion rules by BfR
- Structural and mechanistic domains: Prediction developed based on eye irritation/corrosion inclusion rules by BfR with subcategorisation by substance type, chemical elements and structural similarity. All profilers weight procide a mechanistic or structural domain relevant to the endpoint.
- Similarity with analogues in the training set: The prediction is based on 5 values, 3 of them (60%) equal to predicted value. The training set has been provided in the OECD QSAR Toolbox data matrix.

6. ADEQUACY OF THE RESULT
The prediction is outside of the domain range and only three of the five nearest neighbours are in agreement with the predicted value. Therefore, the prediction is not considered reliable.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
study cannot be used for classification
Conclusions:
The test material was considered moderately irritating in a QSAR prediction (OECD QSAR Toolbox v4.3.1). However, the prediction is outside of the domain range.
Executive summary:

The test material was considered moderately irritating in a QSAR prediction (OECD QSAR Toolbox v4.3.1).

Details of the prediction:

- Defined endpoint: Eye irritation

- Unambiguous algorithm: Mode value from the 5 nearest neighbours

- Defined domain of applicability: log Kow: from -0.67 to -0.18, target is out of domain

- Appropriate measures of goodness-of-fit and robustness and predictivity: The prediction is based on 5 values, 3 of them (60.0%) equal to predicted value. Prediction confidence is measured by the p-value: 0.000769.

- Mechanistic interpretation: Prediction developed based on eye irritation/corrosion inclusion rules by BfR with subcategorisation by substance type, chemical elements and structural similarity.

The prediction is outside of the domain range and only three of the five nearest neighbours are in agreement with the predicted value. Therefore, the prediction is not considered reliable.
