Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: QSAR estimations for dermal absorption tend to be conservative; however, they are not formally validated
Justification for type of information:
QSAR prediction: migrated from IUCLID 5.6

Title:
EpiSuite DermWin V2.02
Author:
US EPA

Materials and methods

Principles of method if other than guideline:
The US-EPA EpiSuite reports DERMWINv.2.02 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).
GLP compliance:
no

Test material

Constituent 1
Chemical structure
Reference substance name:
Dibutyl methylenedithiodi(acetate)
EC Number:
238-289-2
EC Name:
Dibutyl methylenedithiodi(acetate)
Cas Number:
14338-82-0
Molecular formula:
C13H24O4S2
IUPAC Name:
butyl 2-({[(2-butoxy-2-oxoethyl)sulfanyl]methyl}sulfanyl)acetate
Constituent 2
Reference substance name:
MBTester
IUPAC Name:
MBTester

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 0.00003 mg/cm²/event.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

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