Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Results and discussion

Any other information on results incl. tables

The mean recovery of radioactivity was 97 ± 2% % for the skin discs exposed to the powder formulation and 96 ± 2% for the skin discs exposed to the aqueous dilution (500 g L060/L). The total recovery of radioactivity for the individual skin samples was within 100 ±10%, which is according to the OECD guidelines.

The potential dermal absorption was calculated without inclusion of the first two tape strips as recommended in the guidance documents. The mean in vitro dermal absorption was low in terms of percentage with values of 0.31 ± 0.42% for the powder formulation and 0.26 ± 0.33% for the aqueous dilution.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The mean recovery of radioactivity was 97 ± 2% for the skin discs exposed to the powder formulation and 96 ± 2% for the skin discs exposed to the aqueous dilution (500 g L060/L). The mean in vitro dermal absorption was low in terms of percentage with values of 0.31 ± 0.42% for the powder formulation and 0.26 ± 0.33% for the aqueous dilution. The in vitro maximum flux of L060 through human skin was 1.14 ± 2.42 μg/cm2/h for the powder formulation and 0.73 ± 0.94 μg/cm2/h for the aqueous dilution.
