Topical Hazard Evaluation Program of Candidate Insect Repellent AI3-34804, 2,4-Hexadienyl Decanoate, March 1976 - July 1977.

Abstract

A hazard evaluation of candidate insect repellent AI3-34804 was performed by means of laboratory studies using rats, rabbits and guinea pigs. The technical grade compound caused mild skin irritation, but no eye irritation, and no photochemical irritation in rabbits, no sensitization reactions in guinea pigs and did not demonstrate an acute ingestion hazard. It is recommended that AI3-34804, 2,4-hexadienyl decanoate be approved for further testing as a candidate insect repellent. (Author)
