Description of key information
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Acute toxicity studies (LD50determinations) with various Alfa Hydroxy Acid ingredients have demonstrated that these ingredients are of a low order of toxicity when applied dermally or orally ( Cosmetic Ingredient Review, 1998. Final report on the safety assessment of glycolic acid, ammonium, calcium, potassium, and sodium glycolates, methyl, ethyl, propyl, and butyl glycolates, and lactic acid, ammonium, calcium, potassium, sodium and tea-lactates, methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, and butyl lactates, and lauryl, myristyl, and cetyl lactates. International Journal of Toxicology, 17(Suppl. 1):1-3).
Justification for classification or non-classification
On the basis of a category approach, ammonium glycolate is not classified for oral and dermal Acute Toxicity endpoints.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
