Mechanistic research in female rats indicates that suppression of the preovulatory luteinizing hormone surge could cause the delayed ovulation stage and reduced fertility (see below). For D4, appropriate pivotal studies to define a meaningful NOAEL are considered to be the three 90-day repeat-dose studies in rats (Ref. 13, 14, 15) together with the reproduction toxicity studies in rats (Ref. 34; AR 14) and a combined chronic/carcinogenicity study (Ref.: 37; AR 4). These inhalation studies were conducted with the 90-day study in Sprague Dawley rats (Ref. 14) and the two-generation study in SD rats (Ref. 34) using 7 days per week exposure to D4, and 5 days per week in the chronic 2 year study (Ref.: 37; AR 4).

CONCLUSION The SCCS is of the opinion that cyclomethicone (D4, D5) does not pose a risk for human health when used in cosmetic products. Other uses were not considered in this risk assessment. This conclusion is based on the currently available in-use concentrations as cited in this opinion. It should be noted that D4 is classified as a reprotoxic substance, category 3 [ECB 2006]. The NOAEL for systemic toxicity (150 ppm) used for this risk assessment also covers reprotoxic effects (NOAEL = 300 ppm). The Commission Services should consider whether an environmental risk assessment associated with the use of cyclomethicone (D4/D5) in cosmetic products is required. 5.

These values should also cover some possible differences in potency between D4 and D5. The NOAEL for reproductive toxicity of D4 in rats in the 2-generation study was defined as 300 ppm (Siddiqui et al. 2007a). The NOAEL for D5 in the 2-generation rat study was 160 ppm, i.e. the highest concentration that can be applied without aerosol formation (Siddiqui et al 2007b). In chronic toxicity studies, D4 caused endometrial adenomas only at 700 ppm; the NOAEL was 150 ppm (Dow Corning 2004). D5 induced endometrial adenocarcinomas only at 160 ppm (Dow Corning 2005). Other non-neoplastic effects (e.g. liver weight increases) were observed at 150 ppm D4 and 160 ppm D5 in these studies.","endpoint":"repeated dose toxicity","ingredient":"Octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane has","loael_value":"","noael_unit":"ppm","noael_value":"700","page":96,"route":"oral","species":"rat","study_id":"sccs_o_029_noael_037"}
