Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Results and discussion

Signs and symptoms of toxicity:
not specified
Dermal irritation:
not specified
Absorption in different matrices:
1 - 4 % of the test substance was found in the stratum corneum after 6 hours
0.4 - 3 % of the dose had penetrated the deeper skin at this time point
0.04 % of the absorbed material was excreted in faeces and 0.3 % was excreted in urine

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Topical treatment of rats with 3 % 14C-labelled test substance for 6 hours resulted in 87 % of the total dose remaining unabsorbed.
Executive summary:

A dermal absorption study indicated poor dermal availability of the test substance. Topical treatment of rats with 3 % 14C-labelled test substance for 6 hours resulted in 87 % of the total dose remaining unabsorbed. Only 1 - 4 % of the test substance was found in the stratum corneum after 6 hours, and 0.4 - 3 % of the dose had penetrated the deeper skin at this time point. Of the absorbed material, 0.04 % was excreted in faeces and 0.3 % was excreted in urine. The radioactivity detected in blood, organs and tissues was negligible after 6 and 24 hours, with no radioactivity detected after 48 hours.
