Additional information
Acute oral and dermal toxicity is assessed based on read-across from Jasmal to Jessemal. The executive summaries of the source information on the substance is presented below, followed by the read-across rationale.
Jasmal and its acute oral toxicity
In a study equivalent to OECD TG 401 guideline and GLP principles, 10 rats (5 males and 5 females) were administered to the substance at a dose level of 5000 mg/kg bw. No deaths occurred. Slight depression was oberserved among all animals at 3, 6 and 24 hours after application of the substance. Normal bodyweight increases were observed on the 14th day of the observation period. No gross changes were observed.The acute oral LD50 for the substance in male and female rats was determined to be >5000 mg/kg bw.
Jessemal and its Acute inhalation toxicity derived from Jasmal's acute oral toxicity
Acute inhalation is predicted based on the acute oral toxicity in accordance with the ECHA CLP guidance document (2015, 3.1.3.3.4: 1 mg/kg bw = 0.0052 mg/l (5.2 mg/m3). The acute inhalation is predicted to be: LC50=5000 x 5.2 x 50/100 = 13000 mg/m3 (using 100% inhalation and 50% oral absorption). The calculated saturated vapour concentration 34.7 mg/m3 (MW*VP/ 8.3 (gas constant)*298K). This means that the acute inhalation concentration cannot be reached and therefore no acute inhalation is anticipated.
Jasmal and its Acute dermal toxicity
In a study performed according to OECD TG 402 guideline and GLP principles, 10 rats (5 males and 5 females) were administered to the substance at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg bw. No deaths occurred and there were no signs of systemic toxicity. All animals showed expected gains in bodyweight over the study period. There were no signs of dermal irritation and no abnorrnalities were noted at necropsy. The acute dermal LD50 for the substance in male and female rats was determined to be >2000 mg/kg bw.
The acute toxicity of Jessemal based on read across from data available for Jasmal (CAS #18871-14-2)
Introduction and hypothesis for the analogue approach
For the multi-constituent substance Jessemal all constituents > 1% are identified. The substance consists mainly of two sub-groups of constituents, Tetrahydropyran acetate -like constituents, and Branched alkyl diacetates-type.For Jessemal no experimentalacute oral toxicity data are available.In accordance with Article 13 of REACH, lacking information should be generated whenever possible by means other than vertebrate animal tests, i.e. applying alternative methods such as in vitro tests, QSARs, grouping and read-across.For assessing the acute oral and acute dermal toxicity of Jessemal, the analogue approach is selected because for one of the constituents, Jasmal, acute oral and acute dermal toxicity data is available which can be used for read-across.
Hypothesis: Jessemal has the same acute oral and dermaltoxicity as Jasmal.
Available information:For Jasmal acute oral and dermal studies are available, equivalent to OECD TG 401, Rel. 2 and OECD TG 402, Rel. 1, showing LD50 > 5000 and 2000 mg/kg bw, respectively.
Target chemical and source chemical(s)
Chemical structures of the target chemical and the source chemical(s) are shown in the data matrix, including physico-chemical properties.
Purity / Impurities
The major and minor constituents of Jessemal are presented in the Data matrix. The impurities < 10% are grouped depending their resemblance with Tetrahydropyran acetate -like constituents, and Branched alkyl diacetates-type.Analogue approach justification
According to Annex XI 1.5 read across can be used to replace testing when the similarity can be based on a common backbone and a common functional group. When using read across the result derived should be applicable for C&L and/or risk assessment and it should be presented with adequate and reliable documentation, which is presented below.
Analogue selection:For Jessemal the substance Jasmal was selected as source chemical for read-across becauseJessemal‘sconstituents arethe same and/orvery similar to Jasmal’sand for Jasmal experimental acute toxicity information is available.
Structural similarities and differences: Jessemal andJasmal are both reaction masses containing similar Tetrahydropyran acetate-like constituents with molecular weight of 214. Jessemal also contains constituent of Branched alkyl diacetates with molecular weights of 244. These diacetates have one additional acetic ester and have an open ring structure not present in Jasmal. Jessemal hastwo minor impurities just exceeding the 1% level, one being the alcohol derivative of the Tetrahydropyran acetates and the other one of the Branched alkyl diacetates, which will not be addressed further being only very minor constituents.
Toxico-kinetics, absorption: Jessemal and Jasmalare expected to have similar absorption via all routes based on the similarity in chemical structure and physico-chemical properties. Jessemal and Jasmal both have molecular weights, water solubility and log Kow values favourable for uptake. All constituents are acetic esters, which will be cleaved by carboxyl esterases and the corresponding alcohols and acetic esters will be the key metabolites (Toxicological handbooks; Belsito et al., 2008).The Branched diacetates will be present twice as much acetic acid than Jasmal.
Toxico-dynamics: The similar constituents present in Jessemal and Jasmal will present similar reactivity and therefore similar acute toxicity.
Uncertainty of the prediction: There are no uncertainties other than those already addressed above.
Data matrix
The relevant information on physico-chemical properties and toxicological characteristics are presented in the data matrix below.
Conclusions on acute oral toxicity for hazard and risk assessment
For Jessemal no acute toxicity data is available. Jasmal information can be used for read-across is used to fill this data gap. When using read-across the result derived should be applicable for C&L and/or risk assessment, cover an exposure period duration comparable or longer than the corresponding method and be presented with adequate and reliable documentation.This documentation is presented in the current text. For the analogue Jasmal,a well conducted acute oral toxicity test with a LD50 of > 5000 mg/kg bw, and a well conducted acute dermal toxicity test with a LD50 >2000 mg/kg bw are available. This information can be directly used for read across to Jessemal.
Final conclusion:For Jessemal the oral LD50 is >5000 mg/kg bw, and the dermal LD50 is >2000 mg/kg bw.
