Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Administrative data

Endpoint:
acute toxicity: oral
Type of information:
read-across based on grouping of substances (category approach)
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Justification for type of information:
As octafluoropropane is a gas, oral toxicity is not testable. However, acute oral toxicity has been performed on numerous perfluorocarbons, including 12 for which the study reports are attached. The data reported is for perfluorodecalin, as this is the most recent test report that we have.
