Endpoint:
exposure-related observations in humans: other data
Type of information:
migrated information: read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
Adequacy of study:
other information
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: see 'Remark'
Remarks:
Acceptable publication which meets basic scientific principles. Due to structural similarities of the registered substance trans-ß-ionone (CAS 79-77-6) and the used test substance (mixture of α- and β-isomers, CAS 8013-90-9) the data could be taken into account for assessment.

Materials and methods

Test material

Constituent 1
Reference substance name:
Ionone
EC Number:
232-396-8
EC Name:
Ionone
Cas Number:
8013-90-9
IUPAC Name:
4-(2,6,6-trimethylcyclohex-1-en-1-yl)but-3-en-2-one
Details on test material:
- Name of test material (as cited in study report): ionone standard

Method

Details on study design:
- A 24 hour closed patch test was conducted on 11 male and female volunteers.
- Test material was applied undiluted to an area on the inner arm of the subjects measuring 1 cm in diameter.
- Crystalline substances were applied in the same manner except as saturated alcoholic solutions.
- Immediately following application, the area was covered with an adhesive bandage for 24 hours.
- Reactions were read daily for 5 days.
- Applications which produced visible inflammation, irritation, formation of a popular rash, or any abnormal condition of the area, were considered positive reactions.
- All positive reactions were confirmed by repetition of the test on the same subject after complete disappearance of positive systems.
- Results listed are number of positive reactions observed in the number of tests conducted
