Applicant's summary and conclusion

Executive summary:

The in vivo toxicokinetic screening studies consistently showed that Methyl, ethyl and propyl paraben were taken up systemically very rapidly after oral gavage administration to rats and that they were eliminated very rapidly from the bloodstream within one hour after administration. Also, for all test items, the major metabolite p-hydroxybenzoic acid was cleared rapidly from the blood stream within 4–8 h. P-hydroxybenzoic acid does not exhibit systemic toxicity or DART, and it is also not endocrine active.
