- Endpoint:
- screening for reproductive / developmental toxicity

Justification for classification or non-classification
No reproductive effects were observed in a study with the Source Substance 2, docosanoic acid. It is considered that based on the similarity the same is valid for the Category members. Therefore it is concluded that the target substance does not to be classified.
