- no adverse effect observed
- Quality of whole database:
- The available information comprises an adequate, reliable (Klimisch score 2) study from an analogue source substance. Read-across is justified based on common functional group(s), common precursors/breakdown products and similarities in PC/ECO/TOX properties (refer to analogue justification for further details). The information from this source provides sufficient weight of evidence for hazard assessment leading to an endpoint conclusion in accordance with Annex XI, 1.2, of Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006.

Additional information
Justification for read-across
There are no data for acute toxicity available for Fatty acids, C18-unsaturated, 1,6 Hexanediol Diester (EC 947-912-3). To fulfil the standard data requirements defined in Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006, Annex VII-VIII, 8.5, read-across from an appropriate substance is conducted in accordance with Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006, Annex XI, 1.5. According to Article 13 (1) of Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006, "information on intrinsic properties of substances may be generated by means other than tests, provided that the conditions set out in Annex XI are met”. In particular for human toxicity, information shall be generated whenever possible by means other than vertebrate animal tests, which includes the use of information from structurally related substances (grouping or read-across) “to avoid the need to test every substance for every endpoint”.
For each specific endpoint the source substance(s) structurally closest to the target substance is/are chosen for read across, with due regard to the requirements of adequacy and reliability of the available data. Structural similarities and similarities in properties and/or activities of the source and target substances are the basis of read-across. A detailed justification for the analogue read- across approach is provided in the technical dossier (see IUCLID Section 13).
As no experimental data are available on acute toxicity of Fatty acids, C18 -unsaturated, 1,6 Hexanediol Diester (EC 947-912-3), read-across of reliable data on the analogue substance Ditridecyl adipate (CAS 16958-92-2) was conducted.
Acute oral toxicity
CAS 16958-92-2
The acute oral toxicity of Ditridecyl adipate (CAS 16958-92-2) was assessed in a study according to OECD 401 (Exxon, 1978a, key). 5 female and 5 male rats received a dose of 15000 mg/kg bw via oral gavage. No mortality occured. Clinical signs were observed in all animals mainly in form of diarrhea. The number of animals affected declined during the observation time. Other symptoms were lethargy, flabbiness, oily body, ptosis and chromorhinorrhea, which were reversible, except of the chromorhinorrhea, which was observed on the last day of observation (no information given on whether it persisted or not). Therefore, the LD50 value was selected to be exceeding 15000 mg/kg bw in this study.
Acute dermal toxicity
CAS 16958-92-2
The acute dermal toxicity of Ditridecyl adipate (CAS 16958-92-2) was investigated in New Zealand White rabbits at a limit dose of 5000 mg/kg bw according to the Federal Hazardous Substances Act Regulations (16 CFR 1500.40) (Exxon, 1978b, key). The test substance at a limit dose of 5000 mg/kg bw was applied to the intact and abraded skin of 5 animals, respectively, under semi-occlusive conditions for a period of 24 h. No mortalities and no effects on the mean body weights were observed up to the end of the study. Diarrhoea occurred in 2/5 animals with intact skin and 2/5 animals with abraded skin during the 14-day observation period. A bloated abdomen was observed in a single animal (intact skin) on Day 13 and 14 of the study. Further clinical signs included emaciation in 2 animals (abraded skin) as well as lethargy in one of these animals. After exposure, the test substance was removed and skin irritation was assessed according to the Draize scoring system. Erythema (grade 1 or 2) was found in 9/10 animals, whereas edema (grade 1 or 2) was only observed in 3 animals. Based on these results, the dermal LD50 value for rabbits was found to be greater than 5000 mg/kg bw.
Reliable data available for the read-across analogue substance Ditridecyl adipate (CAS 16958-92-2) indicate no acute toxicity following the oral and dermal route as the defined LD50 values exceeds the limit value and no adverse effects at the applied dose have been observed. Thus, Fatty acids, C18-unsaturated, 1,6 Hexanediol Diester (EC 947-912-3) is not considered as hazardous after acute oral and dermal exposure.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the analogue read-across approach, the available data on acute oral and dermal toxicity do not meet the classification criteria according to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, and are therefore conclusive but not sufficient for classification.
