Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information

Oral: Data waiving

Inhalation: Data waiving

Dermal: Data waiving

As the registered substance is classified for its skin corrosion properties as Skin Corr. 1B (H314), no acute toxicity studies have to be conducted according to Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006 (REACH), Annexes VII and VIII, Item 8.5, Column 2.

Additional information

Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006 (REACH) stipulates in its Annexes VII and VIII that acute toxicity tests in either route (oral, inhalation or dermal) do not need to be conducted if the registered substance is classified as skin corrosion. Since N-(1-oxotetradecyl)sarcosine (CAS 52558-73-3) is classified as Skin Corr. 1 as a result of reliable in vitro and in vivo data obtained with adequate analouge substances, testing for acute toxicity is deemed not suitable and necessary. As a result of the skin corrosion properties, contact by any route of exposure to the substance must be avoided and effects of acute toxicity - if any - are avoided as well.

Justification for classification or non-classification

In the absence of appropriate measured data, N-(1-oxotetradecyl)sarcosine (CAS 52558-73-3) is not classified for acute toxicity due to lack of information.
