Additional information
Justification for classification or non-classification
Acute toxicity studies for other substances of the same read-across category as ‘glycerides, C16-22 (SDA Reporting Number: 21-001-00)’ indicate low acute oral and dermal toxicity, with overall LD50 values > 3,000 mg/kg bw. Moreover, these substances have a long history of safe use in a wide range of nutritional (food and feed), cosmetic and industrial applications.
Exposure via the inhalation route is not expected given the physical state (solid) and low vapour pressure of ‘glycerides, C16-22 (SDA Reporting Number: 21-001-00)’.In many cases the substance is used in industrial applications and transported and handled in liquid form (heated).If the substance is handled in powder form, sprayed or otherwise finely dispersed in the air, the use of appropriate risk management measures (e.g. filter mask) is recommended.
Based on the above information, the substance does not require classification for acute oral, dermal or inhalation toxicity according to Directive 67/548/EC or Regulation 1272/2008/EC.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
