Toxicity Profile for Coconut diethanolamide (1990)
Abstract
Coconut diethanolamide has caused skin irritation and sensitization in humans and was a skin and eye irritant in rabbits. It was of low acute oral toxicity in rats. Changes in blood biochemical markers were reported in rabbits following repeated dermal applications of a formulation containing coconut diethanolamide. The diethanolamide gave no evidence of mutagenicity in mammalian cells in culture and it was inactive in bacterial assays, including the Ames mutagenicity test.
What are Toxicity Profiles?
Toxicity Profiles are comprehensive, yet concise, monographs on the hazard potential of individual chemicals.
They are written by scientists specially trained in the evaluation of toxicity data and are prepared principally from primary information sources.
