Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
2-Octyldodecan-1-ol is not cumulatively toxic to pregnant rats and does not reveal embryotoxic, fetotoxic or developmental toxic effects up to 1000 mg/kg bw, the highest dose tested.
Executive summary:

According to an OECD 414 developmental toxicity study with 2 -octyl-1 -dodecanol, the test substance is not cumulatively toxic to pregnant CD rats and does not reveal embryotoxic, fetotoxic or developmental toxic effects up to 1000 mg/kg bw, the highest dose tested.
