Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Additional information - workers

Calcium lactate fully dissociates into Ca2+ ions and lactate. The toxicological effects of lactate can be understood in terms of the toxicological effect of lactic acid. Calcium ions - i.e. simple calcium salts, are non-toxic.

Lactic acid is a ubiquitous and essential molecule of life; natural concentrations in vivo can and will vary wildly. Lactate is non-toxic, any (local) effects are due to pH effects only; long-term DNELs are therefore considered not relevant.
