Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Acute toxicity: via oral route

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no adverse effect observed
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Value:
5 000 mg/kg bw

Acute toxicity: via inhalation route

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no study available

Acute toxicity: via dermal route

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
adverse effect observed
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Value:
6 000 mg/kg bw

Additional information

After oral administration of disodium sebacate to rats and rabbits, no oral toxicity was found. No dermal toxicity was also detected on rabbits after dermal administration of dodecanedioic acid. Based on a read across (category approach), no acute toxicity is expected for undecanedioic acid.

Justification for classification or non-classification

The LD50 by oral route was found higher than 5000 mg/kg bw and for dermal route higher than 6000 mg/kg bw. According to the Dangerous Substances Directive (67/548/EC) and CLP regulation (1272/2008/EC), no classification regarding the oral acute toxicity for disodium sebacate and dermal acute toxicity for dodecanedioic acid is required. The same applies for undecanedioic acid, based on a read across among category members.
