Additional information

Skin Irritation:

The skin irritation potential of 2-methyl-4-(2,2,3-trimethyl-3-cyclopenten-1-yl)-2-buten-1-ol was estimated using OECD QSAR toolbox version 3.4

Reconstituted human epidermis was used to assess the irritation potential.

The substance, 2-methyl-4-(2,2,3-trimethyl-3-cyclopenten-1-yl)-2-buten-1-ol was estimated to be not irritating when tested in an in vitro model.

Based on the QSAR prediction done using the Danish (Q)SAR Database, the skin irritation was estimated to be not irritating on rabbits for 2-Methyl-4-(2,2,3-trimethyl-3-cyclopenten-1-yl)but-2-en-1-ol .Thus it can be concluded that the substance 2-Methyl-4-(2,2,3-trimethyl-3-cyclopenten-1-yl)but-2-en-1-ol has no skin irritation effects and based on the CLP criteria for classification it can be classified as non irritant to skin irritation effects.

A skin irritation study of 2-Buten-1-ol, 2-methyl-4-(2, 2, 3-trimethyl-3-cyclopenten-1-yl) was performed (Safety data sheet-TAKASAGO-Revision No: 1, Revision Date: 27 May 2015) in guinea pigs to observe its irritation efficacy. The test sample was applied at concentration of 0.5% in petrolatum under 48 hours closed patch. Since no known skin reactions were noted, the test chemical 2-Buten-1-ol, 2-methyl-4-(2, 2, 3-trimethyl-3-cyclopenten-1-yl) reported to be non irritant in guinea pigs.

A skin irritation study was performed in 30 volunteers for similar substance 98-55-5 (Contact Dermatitis: 51: 1–4, 2004). The observation period for the study was 72 hours.A 0.2 ml sample of neat alpha-terpineol was applied to a 25 mm Hill Top Chambers containing a Webril pad which was then applied to the skin of the upper outer arm of 30 volunteers for up to 4 hours. alpha-Terpineol was applied progressively from 15 and 30 minutes through 1, 2, 3, and 4 hours. Each progressive application (0.2 ml sample of neat alpha-terpineol was placed on a new skin site. Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) at 20% was the positive control. The reactions were assessed at 24, 48, and 72 h after patch removal. When reactions were greater than or similar to SDS reactions, alpha-terpineol was determined to be irritant and when reactions were less than the SDS reactions the alpha- terpineol was non-irritant. No known skin reactions were observed. Hence the test chemical alpha-Terpineol can be concluded as non irritant on skin of 30 volunteers.

A skin irritation study was performed in human subjects for another similar substance 115 -71 -9 (Food and Cosmetics Toxicology, Volume 12, Issues 7–8, December 1974, Pages 991-992) to determine its irritation potential. The test sample was applied at concentration of 20% in petrolatum for 48 hours closed patch and observations were made. Since no known skin reactions were observed, the test chemical alpha-Santalol was evaluated to be not irritating on human subjects.

Another skin irritation study was performed on similar substance115 -71 -9 (Food and Cosmetics Toxicology Volume 12, Issues 7–8, December 1974, Pages 991-992) in rabbit to determine its irritation potential. The test sample was applied in full strength to intact or abraded rabbit skin for 24 hour under occlusion. Since no known skin reactions were observed, the test chemical alpha-Santalol was determined to be not irritating on rabbit skin.

Based on the available information for the target chemical as well as it various read across substances, and applying the weight of evidence approach; the test substance,2-methyl-4-(2,2,3-trimethyl-3-cyclopenten-1-yl)-2-buten-1-ol was considered to be not irritating to skin.

 

Eye Irritation:

The ocular irritation potential of 2-methyl-4-(2,2,3-trimethyl-3-cyclopenten-1-yl)-2-buten-1-ol was estimated using OECD QSAR toolbox version 3.4

Reconstituted Human Corneal model was used to assess the irritation potential.

The substance, 2-methyl-4-(2,2,3-trimethyl-3-cyclopenten-1-yl)-2-buten-1-ol was estimated to be irritating when tested in an in vitro model.

An eye irritation study in rabbits was performed (Material Safety Data Sheet, INTERNATIONAL FLAVORS & FRAGRANCES, 02/14/2011) to assess the irritation potential. Undiluted test sample was instilled into rabbit eyes. Effects were observed.2-Methyl-4-(2, 2, 3-trimethyl-3-cyclopenten-1-yl)but-2-en-1-ol was considered to be moderately irritating to rabbit eyes.

An eye irritation study in rabbits was performed (Safety data sheet, Kao Specialties Americas LLC, effective date- 03-30-2015) in accordance with Draize test. Undiluted test sample was instilled into rabbit eyes. Washing of the eyes was performed for some rabbits (number unspecified). Reactions were scored according to the Draize test.MAS score for washed and unwashed eyes were 10.0 and 19.8 respectively. Based on the MAS score, 2-Methyl-4-(2, 2 , 3-trimethyl-3-cyclopenten-1-yl)but-2-en-1-ol was considered to be irritating to rabbit eyes.

An eye irritation study was carried out on similar substance 515-69-5 (Food and Chemical Toxicology 46 (2008) S72–S76 and International Journal of Toxicology, 18 (Suppl. 3), 33–40, 1999) to assess the irritation potency.

Undiluted α-bisabolol was instilled into conjunctival sac of 3 rabbits. The eyes remained unwashed. Reactions were read at 1, 24, and 48 h readings. Well-defined conjunctival redness was noted in all rabbits at all the readings. Increased discharge was noted in all animals at the 1 h reading; the reaction cleared in two rabbits and was reduced to a ‘‘slight increase” in one rabbit at the 24 h reading, and was not noted in any rabbit at subsequent observations. No changes were noted in the cornea or iris at any observation. No effects were noted in the 72 hour reading.

Based on these observations, it was concluded that α-bisabolol was mildly irritating to rabbit eyes.

An eye irritation study in rabbits was performed on another similar substance 8000-41-7 (Food and Chemical Toxicology 46 (2008) S275–S279) in accordance with Draize test. The test was conducted in three healthy albino rabbits using 12.5% terpineol. A 0.1 ml sample of 12.5% terpineol in Specially Denatured Alcohol (SDA) 39 °C was instilled into the right eye of each animal, while the left eye served as an untreated control. Reactions were observed every 24 h for four days and on the seventh day. Intense conjunctival irritation involving chemosis and discharge occurred. No corneal opacity or iris congestion was observed. All eyes were normal on day 7. Based on these observations, 12.5% terpineol was considered to be moderately irritating to rabbit eyes.

 

An eye irritation study in rabbits was performed on the similar substance 8000-41-7 (8EHQ-11-18270, Submitted to EPA on 25 February, 2011) in accordance with OECD 405. The test was conducted in rabbit (New Zealand White). The test substance, terpineol was instilled pure into the eye of three rabbits at the dose level of 0.1 ml. At the conjunctivae level, a moderate redness was noted 24 hours after the test substance instillation and was totally reversible between the 6thand 7thday of the test, associated with a moderate chemosis, noted 1 hour after the test substance instillation and totally reversible between the 5th and the 6th day of the test. At the corneal level, a moderate opacity was registered 24 hours after the test substance instillation and was totally reversible between the 3rd and the 6th day of the test. The ocular reactions observed during the study have been moderate, and totally reversible in the three animals. Based on the results obtained in the experimental conditions, it was concluded that terpineol was irritating to rabbit eyes.

Based on the available information for the target chemical as well as it various read across substances, and applying the weight of evidence approach; the test substance,2-methyl-4-(2,2,3-trimethyl-3-cyclopenten-1-yl)-2-buten-1-ol was considered to be an eye irritant.
