- Conclusions:
- CLP: not classified
- Executive summary:
Dermal irritation of the test substance (CAS 91744-23-9, Glyceryl Citrate/Lactate/Linoleate/Oleate) was investigated in a study according to OECD 404 and GLP. 0.5 g of the test substance were applied to the shaved skin of three New Zealand White rabbits (semi-occlusive coverage). Total exposure was 4 h. Thereafter, the test substance was removed using warm water.
Observations were made after 30-60 minutes, 24, 48, and 72 h, as well as 6, 8, and 14 days after patch removal. An adjacent area of untreated skin served as control.
Mean erythema and edema scores after 24, 48, and 72 h were 1.67 and 1.11, respectively. Both were fully reversible within 14 days.
Based on the results of this test the substance is slightly irritating but does not warrant classification according to CLP.

- Conclusions:
- As detailed in the analogue justification, it is considered that the target and the source substances are unlikely to lead to differences in skin irritation potential. The available data on suitable source substances CAS 91744-13-7 and CAS 91744-23-9 did not show any skin irritation effects. Therefore, the target substance is not predicted to be a skin irritant.

In addition to the key study with source substance CAS 91744 -23 -9, data on skin irritation is also available for source substane CAS 91744 -13 -7. For the latter source substance, the mean erythema scores over 24/48/72 h in three animals were 0.3, 0.0 and 1.3 and mean edema scores over 24/48/72 h were 0.0, 0.0 and 0.7, respectively. All effects were fully reversible within 7 days.
The study with source substance CAS 91744 -23 -9 was selected as key study because of higher structural similarity with the target substance EC 701 -358 -7. In addition, the study period was more recent than for source substance CAS 91744 -13 -7.

- Executive summary:
Eye irritation of the test substance (CAS 91744-23-9, Glyceryl Citrate/Lactate/Linoleate/Oleate) was investigated in a study according to OECD 405 and GLP. 0.1 cm³ of the test substance were instilled in one eye each of the three New Zealand White rabbits. Total exposure was 24 h. Thereafter, the test substance was removed using warm physiological saline.
Observations were made after 1, 24, 48, and 72 h after administration. The untreated eye of each animal served as control.
Marked hyperaemias of some blood vessels could be observed in all animals 1 h after application, after 24 hours no effects was noticed. Mean scores for cornea, iris, conjunctivae redness and conjunctivae chemosis after 24, 48, and 72 h were 0 for each endpoint.
Based on the results of this test the substance is classified as not irritating.

In addition to the key study with source substance CAS 91744 -23 -9, data on eye irritation/corrosion is also available for source substance CAS 91744 -13 -7. For the latter source substance, the mean scores on corneal opacity, iritis, conjunctival redness and chemosis were over 24/48/72 h were 0 for all animals.
The study with source substance CAS 91744 -23 -9 was selected as key study because of higher structural similarity with the target substance EC 701 -358 -7. In addition, the study period was more recent than for source substance CAS 91744 -13 -7.

Additional information
Justification for read-across
There are no data on skin and eye irritation/corrosion available for glycerides, C16-18 (even numbered) mono- and di- and their citrates (EC 701-358-7). The assessment of irritation and corrosion was therefore based on studies conducted with analogue substances as part of a read across approach, in order to fulfil the standard requirements set out in Annex VII, 8.1 and 8.2, in accordance with Annex XI, 1.5, of Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006. For each specific endpoint the source substance(s) structurally closest to the target substance is/are chosen for read-across, with due regard to the requirements of adequacy and reliability of the available data. Structural similarities and similarities in properties and/or activities of the source and target substance are the basis of read-across. For skin and eye irritation/corrosion, read-across was conducted with the structurally related analogue substances glycerides, C14-18 and C16-22-unsatd. mono- and di- (CAS 91744-13-7) and glycerides, C16-18 and C18-unsatd. mono-, di- and tri-, citrates, potassium salts (CAS 91744 -23 -9). A statement on the analogue read-across approach is provided in the technical dossier (see IUCLID Section 13).
Skin irritation
CAS 91744-23-9
The dermal irritation potential of glycerides, C16-18 and C18-unsatd. mono-, di- and tri-, citrates, potassium salts was investigated in a study according to OECD 404 and GLP (Sasol, 1996c). 0.5 g of the test substance was applied to the shaved skin of three New Zealand White rabbits (semi-occlusive coverage). Total exposure was 4 h. Thereafter, the test substance was removed using warm water. Observations were made after 30-60 minutes, 24, 48, and 72 h, and 6, 8, and 14 days after patch removal. An adjacent area of untreated skin served as control. Mean erythema and edema scores over the 24, 48, and 72 h reading time points were 1.33/2/1.67 and 1/1/1.33 for the three animals, respectively. All effects were fully reversible within 14 days. Based on the results of this test the substance is slightly irritating but does not warrant classification according to CLP.
CAS 91744-13-7
The skin irritation potential of glycerides, C14-18 and C16-22-unsatd, mono- and di- was investigated in a GLP-conform study performed according to OECD guideline 404 (BASF, 1990a). 0.5 mL of the test substance was applied for 4 h to the shaved skin of 3 Kleinrussen, Chbb:HM rabbits under semi-occlusive conditions. The untreated site of the animals served as control. The scoring of skin reactions (erythema and edema) was performed 1, 24, 48 and 72 h, and 7 days after removal of the dressing. In one animal, slight erythema persisted up to the 72 h, but was fully reversible within the 7-day observation period. In the two other animals, slight erythema was seen at the 1 or 48 h reading, respectively, but was fully reversible 24 h or 72 h after patch removal. Slight edema was only noted in one animal at both the 48 and 72 h reading time points, but fully reversed during the 7-day observation period. No signs of systemic toxicity were seen during the study. The mean erythema and edema scores over the 24, 48 and 72 h reading time points were 0.3/0/1.3 and 0/0/0.7 for the 3 animals. Thus, the test substance is considered to be non-irritating to the skin.
Eye irritation
CAS 91744-23-9
The eye irritation potential of glycerides, C16-18 and C18-unsatd. mono-, di- and tri-, citrates, potassium salts was investigated in a study according to OECD 405 and GLP (Sasol, 1996d). 0.1 cm³ of the test substance were instilled in one eye each of the three New Zealand White rabbits. Total exposure was 24 h. Thereafter, the test substance was removed using warm physiological saline. Observations were made after 1, 24, 48, and 72 h after administration. The untreated eye of each animal served as control. Marked hyperaemias of some blood vessels could be observed in all animals 1 h after application, after 24 hours no effects was noticed. Mean scores for cornea, iris, conjunctivae redness and conjunctivae chemosis after 24, 48, and 72 h were 0 for all animals. Based on the results of this test the substance is considered not irritating to the eye.
CAS 91744-13-7
The eye irritation potential of glycerides, C14-18 and C16-22-unsatd, mono- and di- was investigated according to OECD guideline 405 and in compliance with GLP (BASF, 1990b). The undiluted test material (0.1 mL) was placed into the conjunctival sac of one eye of 3 male Kleinrussen (Chbb:HM) rabbits each. The other eye remained untreated and served as control. The eyes were examined and scored 1, 24, 48 and 72 h after application. No corneal opacity, iritis, conjunctivae or chemosis were observed in any animal at any reading time point. All animals showed slight to moderate exudation exclusively at the 1 h reading time point. No further local or systemic toxic effects were reported. The mean cornea, iris, conjunctivae and chemosis scores after 24, 48, and 72 h were 0 for all 3 animals, respectively. Thus, the test substance was not considered as eye irritant.
Overall conclusion for skin and eye irritation
The reliable data available for the read-across analogue substances glycerides, C14-18 and C16-22-unsatd, mono- and di- (CAS No. 91744-13-7) and glycerides, C16-18 and C18-unsatd. mono-, di- and tri-, citrates, potassium salts (CAS No. 91744 -23 -9) did not show any skin or eye irritation effects. Therefore, glycerides, C16-18 (even numbered) mono- and di- and their citrates (EC 701-358-7) is not expected to be a skin irritant or an eye irritant.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on read-across from structurally similar substances, the available data on skin and eye irritation do not meet the classification criteria according to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, and are therefore conclusive but not sufficient for classification.
