Limited information available.

A reproduction/developmental toxicity screening test was conducted in male and female Sprague-Dawley rats for glyceryl oleate.23 Both males and females were dosed by gavage with 0, 100, 300, or 1000 mg/kg bw/day glyceryl oleate in corn oil once daily for 14 days prior to mating; the males were dosed for an additional 28 days, and dosing of the females continued until day 4 of lactation. There were 12 females in the control and 3 test groups, 7 males in the control and high dose groups, and 12 males in the low- and mid-dose groups. A satellite group of 5 males and 5 females were dosed for 42 days, with a 14- day post-dosing observation period. The NOAELs for systemic toxicity (males and females), fertility (males and females), and development (F1 generation) were 1000 mg/kg bw/day. No effects related to the administration of the test-article were observed in parental animals or offspring.

General safety info about Hydrogenated Vegetable Glycerides Citrate from CIR

The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel assessed the safety of 44 monoglyceryl monoesters that are structurally-constituted of the esterification products of glycerin and carboxylic acids (the majority of which are fatty acids); 36 of these monoesters were previously-reviewed by the Panel, and 8 are reviewed for the first time. Most of the monoglyceryl monoester have several functions in cosmetics, but the most common function among the ingredients is skin conditioning agent; a few are reported to function only as surfactant – emulsifying agents. The Panel reviewed relevant new data, including frequency and concentration of use, and considered the data from previous CIR reports. The Panel concluded these ingredients are safe in cosmetics in the present practices of use and concentration described in this safety assessment.
