Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Justification for classification or non-classification

‘Glycerides, C8-18 and C18-unsatd. (SDA Reporting Number: 01-001-00)’ and other substances of the same read-across category have been tested for reproductive toxicity in rodents and found to have no effect after oral exposure. No reproductive toxicity is expected from dermal exposure as systemic uptake will be lower than from the oral route. Finally, given the physical state, low vapour pressure of the substance and the fact that it is not handled or marketed as a liquid or a powder, reproductive toxicity as a result of inhalatory exposure is not expected.

 ‘Glycerides, C8-18 and C18-unsatd. (SDA Reporting Number: 01-001-00)’ and other substances of the same read-across category have a very long history of safe use in nutritional (food and feed), cosmetic and industrial applications. In the form of olive oil, corn oil, sunflower oil, etc., they are also frequently employed as vehicles in toxicity studies following international testing guidelines (e.g. OECD) for the evaluation of the repeated dose toxicity, carcinogenicity or reproductive/developmental toxicity of chemical substances, without any apparent adverse effects.

Based on the existing information, the substance does not require classification for reproductive or developmental toxicity according to Directive 67/548/EC or Regulation 1272/2008/EC.
