EC number: 954-736-0 | CAS number: -
Acute Toxicity: oral
Administrative data
- Endpoint:
- acute toxicity: oral
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- weight of evidence
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- data from handbook or collection of data
- Justification for type of information:
- Information taken from a review hydrocarbon toxicity for use in cosmetics; method details lacking
New animal testing cannot be performed as use is only for cosmetics
The class of substance has a history of use in consumer products and is not considered hazardous to health (other than Aspiration Toxicity)
