Additional information

Acute oral toxicity:

Based on the data available for target 3- Phenylpropyl acetate (CAS no 122-72-5) for acute oral toxicity is summarized below

In a study given by McGintyet al(2012) and Morenoet al(1979), acute oral toxicity was evaluated in group of 10 rats by using 3- Phenylpropyl acetate in the concentration of 2220, 3330, 5000 and 7000 mg/Kg orally and observed for 14 days. 9 rats were died at 7000 mg/kg, 6 at 5000 mg/kg, 2 at 3330 mg/kg and no mortality was observed at 2220 mg/kg bw. All deaths occurred within 2 days after dosing. Piloerection were observed at 3330 and 7000 mg/kg and depression and a negative righting reflex at 5000 and 7000 mg/kg in treated rats. Therefore, LD50 was considered to be 4700 mg/kg (3840-5560) when rats were treated with 3- Phenylpropyl acetate orally.

In a study given by Belsitoet al(2012), acute oral toxicity was evaluated in 10 rats by using 3- Phenylpropyl acetate in the concentration of 4700 orally. 50 % mortality was observed at 4700 mg/kg bw.. Therefore, LD50 was considered to be 4700 mg/kg (3800-5600) when rats were treated with 3- Phenylpropyl acetate orally.

Thus, Based on the data available for target 3- Phenylpropyl acetate (CAS no 122-72-5) is likely to be non hazardous by oral route of exposure in rats.

Acute dermal toxicity:

Based on the data available for target 3- Phenylpropyl acetate (CAS no 122-72-5) and it’s 80-90% similar read across benzyl acetate (CAS no 144-11-4) for acute dermal toxicity is summarized below

In a study given by McGintyet al(2012), acute dermal toxicity was evaluated in group of 10 rabbits by using 3- Phenylpropyl acetate in the concentration of 5000 mg/Kg orally and observed for 14 days. 1 rabbit were died at 5000 mg/kg bw and no clinical signs of toxicity were observed in treated rabbits. Therefore, LD50 was considered to be > 5000 mg/kg when rabbits were treated with 3- Phenylpropyl acetate dermally.

In a study given by Morenoet al(1979), acute dermal toxicity was evaluated in group of rabbits by using Phenylpropyl acetate in the concentration of 5000 mg/Kg orally. No mortality was observed at 5000 mg/kg bw in treated rabbits. Therefore, LD50 was considered to be > 5000 mg/kg when rabbits were treated with Phenylpropyl acetate dermally.

In a study given by McGintyet al(2012), acute dermal toxicity was evaluated rabbits treated with benzyl acetate in the concentration of 5000 mg/kg bw dermally. No mortality was observed at 5000 mg/kg bw in treated rabbits. Therefore, LD50 was considered to be > 5000 mg/kg when rabbits were treated with benzyl acetate topically.

Thus, Based on the data available for target 3- Phenylpropyl acetate (CAS no 122-72-5) and its 80-90% similar read across benzyl acetate (CAS no 144-11-4) is likely to be non hazardous by dermal route of exposure in rabbits.

Justification for selection of acute toxicity – oral endpoint

LD50 was considered to be 4700 mg/kg (3840-5560) when rats were treated with 3- Phenylpropyl acetate orally.

Justification for selection of acute toxicity – dermal endpoint

LD50 was considered to be > 5000 mg/kg when rabbits were treated with 3- Phenylpropyl acetate dermally.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the data available for target 3- Phenylpropyl acetate (CAS no 122-72-5) and its 80-90% similar read across benzyl acetate (CAS no 144-11-4) is likely to be non hazardous by oral and dermal route of exposure in rats and rabbits.
