Additional information
n-Dodecenyl succinic anhydride (n-DDSA) has been tested for acute toxicity in rats via oral, inhalation and dermal administration. In a current guideline study (OECD 425) according to GLP, the LD50 of the material given by oral gavage was > 2000 mg/kg bw. In information obtained from a secondary source (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency), a 4-hour exposure to 5300 mg/m3, or 5.3 mg/L as n-DDSA aerosol (2.3 micron mean geometric diameter in ethanol), resulted in less than 50% mortality. In a guideline study (OECD 402) according to GLP, the LD50 of the material applied dermally under occlusive wrap for 24 hours was > 2000 mg/kg bw. These data indicate that nDDSA has a low potential for acute toxicity.
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – oral endpoint
Guideline study under GLP
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – inhalation endpoint
Data is from a secondary source, but has been evaluated by a reputable authoritative body, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – dermal endpoint
Guideline study under GLP.
Justification for classification or non-classification
The substance does not meet the criteria for classification according to Regulation EC No. 1272/2008. The oral LD50 is > 2000 mg/kg bw (the criteria for classification being ≤ 2000 mg/kg bw). The acute inhalation toxicity is > 5.3 mg/L (the criteria for classification being ≤ 5.0 mg/L as a mist). The acute dermal toxicity is > 2000 mg/kg bw (the criteria for classification being ≤ 2000 mg/kg bw).
