Additional information

Skin irritation:

C12-C18 trialkyl glyceride (CAS No. 67701-26-2) was tested for its skin irritation potential according to EPA OPP 81-5 (Guest, 1988): Six New Zealand White rabbits were exposed to 0.5 mL of the waxy solid test material (warmed to approx. 40 ºC and applied as a liquid to the skin) for 4 hours under semiocclusive conditions. The rabbits were observed for 72 hours. Skin reactions were assessed using the

Draize scheme 24, 48 and 72 hours after removal of the test substance. Slight erythema was observed in 3 out of 6 animals 24 and 48 hours after patch removal, which was fully reversible within 72 hours. In the other animals no erythema was observed. No oedema occurred in any of the tested animals.

Eye irritation:

Glycerides, C12-18 (CAS No. 67701-26-2) was tested for its eye irritation potential according to EPA OPP 81-4 (Jones, 1988): 0.1 mL (approx. 97 mg) of the waxy solid test substance was warmed until molten and instilled into the conjunctival sac of one eye of six New Zealand White rabbits. The animals were observed for 72 hours. Irritation was scored 24, 48 and 72 hours after instillation according to the

method of Draize. Slight redness of conjunctivae occurred 2 out of 6 tested animals, which was fully reversible within 48 hours.

Justification for classification or non-classification

According to DSD (67/548/EEC) or CLP (1272/2008/EC) classification criteria for irritation/corrosion, no classification is required.
