RIFM fragrance ingredient safety assessment, phenylacetaldehyde, CAS Registry Number 122-78-1.
(2020) In Food and Chemical Toxicology 144.- Abstract
The existing information supports the use of this material as described in this safety assessment. The material (phenylacetaldehyde) was evaluated for genotoxicity, repeated dose toxicity, developmental and reproductive toxicity, local respiratory toxicity, phototoxicity, skin sensitization, and environmental safety. Data show that phenylacetaldehyde is not genotoxic and provide a calculated margin of exposure (MOE) > 100 for the repeated dose and developmental and reproductive toxicity endpoints. Data from phenylacetaldehyde provided a No Expected Sensitization Induction Level (NESIL) of 590 μg/cm2 for the skin sensitization endpoint. The local respiratory toxicity endpoint was completed using the threshold of... (More)
The existing information supports the use of this material as described in this safety assessment. The material (phenylacetaldehyde) was evaluated for genotoxicity, repeated dose toxicity, developmental and reproductive toxicity, local respiratory toxicity, phototoxicity, skin sensitization, and environmental safety. Data show that phenylacetaldehyde is not genotoxic and provide a calculated margin of exposure (MOE) > 100 for the repeated dose and developmental and reproductive toxicity endpoints. Data from phenylacetaldehyde provided a No Expected Sensitization Induction Level (NESIL) of 590 μg/cm2 for the skin sensitization endpoint. The local respiratory toxicity endpoint was completed using the threshold of toxicological concern (TTC) for a Cramer Class I material, and the exposure to phenylacetaldehyde was below the TTC (0.03 mg/kg/day, 0.03 mg/kg/day, and 1.4 mg/day, respectively). The phototoxicity/photoallergenicity endpoint was completed based on data and ultraviolet (UV) spectra; phenylacetaldehyde is not expected to be phototoxic/photoallergenic. The environmental endpoints were evaluated; phenylacetaldehyde was not found to be persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic (PBT) as per the International Fragrance Association (IFRA) environmental standards and its risk quotients, based on its current volume of use in Europe and North America (i.e., Predicted Environmental Concentration/Predicted No Effect Concentration [PEC/PNEC]) are <1.
