Sample Use Guides
acute oral toxicity in rats: The LD50 was>5000 mg/kg, and nonanoic acid was considered nontoxic.
Route of Administration:
Oral
genotoxicity: The National Toxicology Program evaluated the mutagenicity of pelargonic acid (in dimethylsulfoxide) in Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 98 and TA 100 using the Ames preincubation assay. Pelargonic acid was tested at doses up to 5000 ug/plate with and without metabolic activation, and results were negative in each strain.
