Irritant / corrosive response data:
-Topical application elicited very slight erythema in 5 animals at the 45 minute interval
- Erythema increased after the 45 minute interval and at the 24 and 48 hours interval, 2 animals were noted with well-defined erythema and 4 animals were noted with very slight erythema.
- Erythema increased again at the 72 hour and Day 7 intervals; 5 animals were noted with well-defined erythema and 1 animal with very slight.
-Desquamation was noted in 4 animals at the Day 7 interval while exfoliation was noted in 2 animals at the Day 7 interval.
Other effects:
All animals survived the study

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 2 (irritant) based on GHS criteria
Remarks:
Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Branched alcohols, C9-C11, C10-rich is a skin irritant.
Executive summary:

Isodecanol was administered via an occluded patch to 6 rabbits at a dose of 0.5 ml for 4 hours of exposure to assess dermal irritation.  Observations were conducted at 45 minutes, 24, 48 and 72 hours and 7 days after exposure.  Well defined erythema was noted in 1 animal at the 45 minute point while the other animals had very slight erythema. Erythema increased after the 45 minute interval. Five animals were noted with well-defined erythema at the 24 and 48 hour intervals; the mean primary dermal irritation index was 2.16. At the 72 hour interval, all animals were noted with well-defined erythema. Erythema increased again at the Day 7 interval; two animals were noted with severe erythema and four animals were noted with well-defined erythema.  The mean skin irritation scores between 24 and 72 hours were: erythema 1.5 and edema 0.56. Four of six animals exhibited desquamation at Day 7, and the other two animals exhibited exfoliation at Day 7.
