Toxicological information

Dermal absorption

Currently viewing:

Administrative data

Endpoint:
dermal absorption in vitro / ex vivo
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: see 'Remark'
Remarks:
GLP guideline study tested with the source substance Decyl octyl glycosides. According to the ECHA guidance document “Practical guide 6: How to report read-across and categories (Dec 2012)”, the reliability was changed from RL1 to RL2 to reflect the fact that this study was conducted on a read-across substance.
Justification for type of information:
refer to category justification provided in IUCLID section 13

Results and discussion

Absorption in different matrices:
The mean amount of CG removed from the skin surface (skin wash) ranged from 109.26% to 144.57% of the dose applied. The mean recovery (mean value for 6 Franz cells) in the two first tape strips was 0.52% during all performed experiments. In the further 18 tape strips a mean recovery of 0.30% was documented. The mean absorbed dose of CG, sum of the amounts found in the viable epidermis, dermis and receptor medium, were considered as 0.01%.
Total recovery:
- Total recovery: 88.65-112.28%
- Recovery of applied dose acceptable: 100 ± 20%
- Limit of quantification (LOQ): 0.088 μg/mL in KRB pH 7.4 without HEPES and glucose
