Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Interpretation of results:
other: Not Classified
Remarks:
Criteria used for interpretation of results: other: CLP
Conclusions:
The dermal toxicity of hydrocarbons, C7-C9, n-alkanes, isoalkanes, cyclics was examined. Groups of two female and two male rats were exposed dermally to 1, 2, or 4 mL/kg of test substance. No animals died during the experiment. The dermal LD50 for rats is >= 4 mL/kg. The test substance is not classified as a dermal toxic under OECD GHS guidelines.
Executive summary:

This data is being read across from the source study that tested Hydrocarbon C7-C9, n-alkanes, isoalkanes, cyclics based on analogue read across.

The dermal toxicity of hydrocarbons, C7-C9, n-alkanes, isoalkanes, cyclics was examined. Groups of two female and two male rats were exposed dermally to 1, 2, or 4 mL/kg of test substance. No animals died during the experiment. The dermal LD50 for rats is >= 4 mL/kg. The test substance is not classified as a dermal toxic under OECD GHS guidelines.
