ABSTRACT

A single dose oral toxicity test of 2,3-dihydroxypropyl 9-cis-octadecenoate in rats allowed classification of the chemical into category 5 of the GHS regarding acute toxicity. There were no abnormalities in general condition, body weight or gross pathological findings in any animal.

2,3-Dihydroxypropyl 9-cis-octadecenoate was studied for oral toxicity in the OECD Combined Repeated Dose and Reproductive/Developmental Toxicity Screening Test at doses of 0, 100, 300 and 1000 mg/kg/day.

With regard to repeated toxicity, there were no changes attributable to administration of the test substance on observation of general condition, or for detailed clinical signs in the FOB, responses in the sensory/reflex function test, landing foot splay, grip strength, motor activity, body weights, food consumption, urinalysis (male only), hematological examination, blood biochemical examination, necropsy, organ weights and histopathological examination.

From these results, the NOAELs for repeated dose toxicity are considered to be 1000 mg/kg/day or more for parental animals of both sexes.

The male and female parental animals exhibited no alteration in reproductive parameters. On examination of neonates, there were no alterations in developmental parameters.

The NOAELs for reproductive/developmental toxicity are therefore considered to be 1000 mg/kg/day or more for reproductive performance of male parental animals, female parental animals and for offspring development.

Reverse mutation tests using microorganisms (Salmonella typhimurium, Escherichia coli) were conducted to assess the potential of 2,3-dihydroxypropyl 9-cis-octadecenoate to induce gene mutations.

2,3-Dihydroxypropyl 9-cis-octadecenoate did not induce gene mutations in bacteria under the conditions of this study.

In vitro chromosomal aberration tests using cultured Chinese hamster cells (CHL/IU) were conducted to assess the potential of 2,3-dihydroxypropyl 9-cis-octadecenoate to induce chromosomal aberrations.

2,3-Dihydroxypropyl 9-cis-octadecenoate did not induce chromosomal aberrations in cultured cells under the conditions of this study.
