Administrative data

Endpoint:
acute toxicity: dermal
Type of information:
migrated information: read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
09 Jun-25 Jun 1992
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: see 'Remark'
Remarks:
GLP-Guideline study, tested with the source substance Octanoic acid ester with 1,2-propanediol, mono- and di- (CAS No. 31565-12-5). According to the ECHA guidance document “Practical guide 6: How to report read-across and categories (March 2010)”, the reliability was changed from RL1 to RL2 to reflect the fact that this study was conducted on a read-across substance.

Results and discussion

Effect levels
Sex:
male/female
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
> 2 000 mg/kg bw
Based on:
test mat.
Mortality:
No mortality occurred during the study period.
Clinical signs:
other: 48 h after application 2 male and 1 female animal showed scaling. Scales were not apparent at the 72 h observation time point.
Gross pathology:
Necropsy revealed no substance-related findings. One male animal showed a slight swelling of the spleen possibly due to the termination of the study.
