 Linoleic acid  7.05
 Oleic acid  7.64

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The vapour pressure of the test substance was estimated using the constituents approach.

This final extract is a natural complex substance. It is a mixture of several components, and two of them (oleic acid and linoleic acid) represent about 89% of the UVCB.

The value of the partition coefficient of this extract of carrot is estimated between 7.05 and 7.64.
