Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Administrative data

Endpoint:
dermal absorption
Type of information:
(Q)SAR
Adequacy of study:
supporting study
Reliability:
4 (not assignable)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: QSAR estimations from dermal absorption tend to be conservative; however, they are not formally validated

Materials and methods

Principles of method if other than guideline:
The Danish QSAR Database reports DERMWINv.2 calculations. These are based on the Guy & Potts formula (GUY R.H. AND POTTS R.O., 1992. Structure-Permeability Relationships in Percutaneous absorption. J. Pharm. Sci.. 81: 603-604).

Test material

Constituent 1
Chemical structure
Reference substance name:
Pentaerythritol tetrakis(3-mercaptopropionate)
EC Number:
231-472-8
EC Name:
Pentaerythritol tetrakis(3-mercaptopropionate)
Cas Number:
7575-23-7
Molecular formula:
C17H28O8S4
IUPAC Name:
3-[(3-sulfanylpropanoyl)oxy]-2,2-bis({[(3-sulfanylpropanoyl)oxy]methyl})propyl 3-sulfanylpropanoate

Results and discussion

Percutaneous absorption
Parameter:
percentage
Absorption:
<= 10 %
Remarks on result:
other: 8 h
Remarks:
Concluded on the basis of the very low predicted absorption rate of 0.00001 mg/cm²/event.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
It is concluded that absorption of PETMP through human skin in vivo within 8 h will be significantly less than 10%. This is a very conservative assumption that will be used for dermal risk assessments.
