2,6-dimethyloct-7-en-2-ol

Acute Toxicity: inhalation

Administrative data

Endpoint:

acute toxicity: inhalation

Data waiving:

other justification

Justification for data waiving:

the study does not need to be conducted because exposure of humans via inhalation is not likely taking into account the vapour pressure of the substance and/or the possibility of exposure to aerosols, particles or droplets of an inhalable size

Justification for type of information:

According to Annex VIII, 8.5.2, column 2, acute inhalation toxicity testing is not required if the vapour pressure of the substance is low and thus, exposure to humans by inhalation is unlikely. Based on the vapour pressure of 20 Pa at 25°C of the test item, significant exposure by the inhalation route is precluded and thus, acute inhalation toxicity testing is not required.
