Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Conclusions:
The toxicity of N,N’[(methylimino)bis(trimethylene)]bis(stearamide) after oral administration was investigated in a study similar to OECD guideline 423 by (gavage) to Sprague Dawley rats. These data were used to evaluate the acute oral toxicity of N, N’-[(methylimino)bis (trimethylene)]bis(oleamide).
An LD50 value of > 2000 mg/kg can be established for N, N’-[(methylimino)bis (trimethylene)]bis(oleamide).

Additional information

Acute oral toxicity

The toxicity of N,N’[(methylimino)bis(trimethylene)]bis(stearamide) after oral administration was investigated in a study similar to OECD guideline 423 by (gavage) to Sprague Dawley rats. These data were used to evaluate the acute oral toxicity of N, N’-[(methylimino)bis (trimethylene)]bis(oleamide).

An LD50 value of > 2000 mg/kg can be established for N, N’-[(methylimino)bis (trimethylene)]bis(oleamide).

Further testing for inhalation or dermal route

Testing on vertebrate animals for the purpose of REACH shall be undertaken only as a last resort. The acute intrinsic toxicity after oral exposure of N,N'-[(methylimino)bis(trimethylene)] bis(oleamide) is considered to be low; a LD50 value of > 2000 mg/kg was established. Further testing on vertebrate animals for acute toxicity via inhalation or dermal route is scientifically not necessary, taken into account available information reflecting low intrinsic toxicity. In conclusion the occurrence of a systemic toxicity after inhalation or dermal exposure relevant to humans is unlikely and therefore the conduct of an acute inhalation toxicity study and/or an acute dermal toxicity study is not justified.  

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on relevant, reliable and adequate data, N, N’-[(methylimino)bis (trimethylene)]bis(oleamide) does not have to be classified and labelled according to the CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 with respect to acute toxicity.
