Endpoint summary
Administrative data
Description of key information
2,2-Dimethyl-3-lauroyloxy-propanal showed an acute oral toxicity greater than 2000 mg/kg bw in rats. The acute dermal toxicity of 2,2-Dimethyl-3-lauroyloxy-propanal was found to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bw in rats. Testing on inhalation toxicity was waived, as data on oral and dermal toxicity are available.

- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes
- Other examinations performed:
clinical signs:
A careful clinical examination was made continuously for 30 minutes after the application, then 1h, 2h, 3h, 4h, 5h after the treatment and once each day for 14 days thereafter. Individual observations were performed on the skin and fur, eyes and mucous membranes, and also respiratory, circulatory, autonomic and central nervous system, somatomotor activity and behaviour pattern.
body weight:
The body weight were measured and recorded on day 0 (beginning of the experiment), on days 7 and 14 with precision of 1 g. - Statistics:
- Not applicable.
- Key result
- Sex:
- male
- Dose descriptor:
- LD50
- Effect level:
- >= 2 000 mg/kg bw
- Based on:
- test mat.
- Mortality:
- No mortality was observed.
- Clinical signs:
- other: No clinical symptoms appeared after the treatment. The behaviour and general state of all six animals were normal during the study.
- Gross pathology:
- In the three female animals treated in the first step (2000 mg/kg bw), pulmonary emphysema was observed (No.: 1560, 1561,1562).
In the further three female animals treated at the second step (2000 mg/kg bw), pinprick-sized haemorrhages were found in the lungs (No.: 1563, 1564,1565). In animal No.: 1563, hydrometra occurred, as well.
No macroscopic alterations related to the toxic effect of the test item were found.
The pulmonary emphysema and pinprick-sized haemorrhages in the lungscould be most likely attributed to the terminal procedures. Hydrometra is a common alteration, which occurs sporadically in the experimental rats and was regarded as incidental. - Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of the present study, a single oral administration of the test item 2,2-Dimethyl-3-lauroyloxy-propanal caused neither signs of toxicity nor mortality at 2000 mg/kg bw dose.
- Executive summary:
The acute toxic class method according to OECD 423 was performed with 2,2-Dimethyl-3-lauroyloxy-propanal. Six female CRL:(WI) BR Wistar rats were treated with 2,2-Dimethyl-3-lauroyloxy-propanal by oral gavage (single application) at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg in sunflower oil. There was no mortality in the study. Based on these findings no further testing was performed. No clinical signs appeared after administration of 2,2-Dimethyl-3-lauroyloxy-propanal at 2000 mg/kg dose level. No effects on mean body weight and body weight gain were noted for these dose groups. Macroscopic alterations due to the toxic effect of the test item 2,2-Dimethyl-3-lauroyloxy-propanal were not found. Based on the results of this test, the acute oral LD50 of 2,2-Dimethyl-3-lauroyloxy-propanal was estimated to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bw in the rat.

Additional information
Acute toxicity: oral
The acute toxic class method according to OECD 423 was performed with 2,2-Dimethyl-3-lauroyloxy-propanal. Six female CRL:(WI) BR Wistar rats were treated with 2,2-Dimethyl-3-lauroyloxy-propanal by oral gavage (single application) at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg in sunflower oil. There was no mortality in the study. Based on these findings no further testing was performed. No clinical signs appeared after administration of 2,2-Dimethyl-3-lauroyloxy-propanal at 2000 mg/kg dose level. No effects on mean body weight and body weight gain were noted for these dose groups. Macroscopic alterations due to the toxic effect of the test item 2,2-Dimethyl-3-lauroyloxy-propanal were not found. Based on the results of this test,. the acute oral LD50 of 2,2-Dimethyl-3-lauroyloxy-propanal was estimated to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bw in the rat.
Acute toxicty: inhalation
Additional testing by inhalation route is not applicable as data for oral and dermal toxicity study were available. According to the REACH Regulation No. 1907/2006, Annex VIII, 8.5.1 only information on two application routes needs to be provided, with test item administration via the most appropriate route.
Acute toxicity: dermal
The acute dermal toxicity study (Limit Test) according to OECD 402 was performed with 2,2-Dimethyl-3-lauroyloxy-propanal. Five male and 5 female CRL (WI) BR Wistar rats were treated (single 24-hour dermal application) with undiluted 2,2-Dimethyl-3-lauroyloxy-propanal at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg bw.None of these animals died.Clinical signs or dermal symptoms were not observed during the 14days post-treatment observation period. No effects on mean body weight and body weight gain were noted for these dose groups. Specific macroscopic alterations related to the toxic effect of the test item 2,2-Dimethyl-3-lauroyloxy-propanal were not found. Based on the results of this test,. the acute dermal LD50 of 2,2-Dimethyl-3-lauroyloxy-propanal was estimated to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bw in the rat.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on data available for acute toxicity, Aldehyde L was not classified and labelled according to Regulation 1272/2008/EC (CLP), as amended for the fifteenth time in Regulation (EU) No 2020/1182.
