TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 1(SRC), determined from a structure estimation method(2), indicates that methyl lactate is expected to have very high mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of methyl lactate from moist soil surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 4.8X10-7 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), derived from its vapor pressure, 3.5 mm Hg(3), and an assigned value for water solubility of 1.0X10+6 mg/L (miscible)(4). Methyl lactate is expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon its vapor pressure(3). A 76% of theoretical BOD using activated sludge in a 28-day OECD 301D closed-bottle test indicates methyl lactate is readily biodegradable(5) and suggests that biodegradation is an important environmental fate process in soil(SRC). The lactate ester group of compounds are generally considered to be readily biodegradable(5,6). Hydrolysis may be an important fate process in moist alkaline soils(SRC). A base-catalyzed second-order hydrolysis rate constant of 1.18 L/mole-sec(SRC) was estimated using a structure estimation method for 25 °C(2); this corresponds to half-lives of 68, 6.8 and 0.68 days at pH values of 7, 8 and 9, respectively(SRC).

AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 1(SRC), determined from a structure estimation method(2), indicates that methyl lactate is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is not expected(3) based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 4.8X10-7 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), derived from its vapor pressure, 3.5 mm Hg(4), and an assigned value for water solubility of 1.0X10+6 mg/L (miscible)(5). According to a classification scheme(6), an estimated BCF of 3(SRC), from an estimated log Kow of -0.67(2) and a regression-derived equation(2), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). A 76% of theoretical BOD using activated sludge in a 28-day OECD 301D closed-bottle test indicates methyl lactate acid is readily biodegradable(7) and suggests that biodegradation is an important environmental fate process in water(SRC). The lactate ester group of compounds are generally considered to be readily biodegradable(7,8). Hydrolysis may be an important fate process in alkaline waters(SRC). A base-catalyzed second-order hydrolysis rate constant of 1.18 L/mole-sec(SRC) was estimated using a structure estimation method for 25 °C(2); this corresponds to half-lives of 68, 6.8 and 0.68 days at pH values of 7, 8 and 9, respectively(SRC).

ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), methyl lactate, which has a vapor pressure of 3.5 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase methyl lactate is degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals(SRC); the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 6 days(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 2.8X10-12 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(3). Methyl lactate does not contain chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm(4) and, therefore, is not expected to be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(SRC).

Based on the available information included in this report, the CIR Expert Panel concludes that Glycolic and Lactic Acid, their common salts and their simple esters, are safe for use in cosmetic products at concentrations less than or equal to 10%, at final formulation pH greater than or equal to 3.5, when formulated to avoid increasing sun sensitivity or when directions for use include the daily use of sun protection. These ingredients are safe for use in salon products at concentrations less than or equal to 30%, at final formulation pH greater than or equal to 3.0, in products designed for brief, discontinuous use followed by thorough rinsing from the skin, when applied by trained professionals, and when application is accompanied by directions for the daily use of sun protection...Methyl Lactate...

IDENTIFICATION AND USE: Methyl lactate is a colorless, transparent liquid. It is used as a solvent. HUMAN EXPOSURE AND TOXICITY: There is no data. ANIMAL STUDIES: Methyl Lactate was not irritating to guinea pig and rabbit eyes. The estimated average lethal dose for the female rat following ip injection of laboratory grade methyl lactate was >2000 mg/kg. Observations included narcosis, respiratory distress, and peritoneal adhesions. Hydrolysis of lactate esters to lactic acid and alcohol has been reported to occur after both skin application and oral administration. Lactic acid is a naturally occurring metabolite, and its toxicity is mostly a result of its acidity.

EPA has released the Interactive Chemical Safety for Sustainability (iCSS) Dashboard. The iCSS Dashboard provides an interactive tool to explore rapid, automated (or in vitro high-throughput) chemical screening data generated by the Toxicity Forecaster (ToxCast) project and the federal Toxicity Testing in the 21st century (Tox21) collaboration. /The title compound was tested by ToxCast and/or Tox21 assays/[USEPA; ICSS Dashboard Application; Available from, as of December 17, 2015: http://actor.epa.gov/dashboard/]

Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc of methyl lactate can be estimated to be 1(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that methyl lactate is expected to have very high mobility in soil.

Methyl lactate's production and use as a solvent for cellulose acetate, nitrocellulose, cellulose acetobutyrate, cellulose acetopropionate, lacquers and stains(1) as well as an ingredient in some cosmetics(2) and development as a possible "green" solvent(3) may result in its release to the environment through various waste streams(SRC).

AEROBIC: Methyl lactate, present at 2.04 mg/L, reached 76% of its theoretical BOD in 28 days using an activated sludge inoculum in the OECD 301D Method (Closed Bottle Test) which classified the compound as readily biodegradable(1). The similar compound ethyl lactate was found to be readily biodegradable using the Japanese MITI test(2). The lactate ester group of compounds are generally considered to be readily biodegradable(1,3).

An estimated BCF of 3 was calculated in fish for methyl lactate(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of -0.67(1) and a regression-derived equation(1). According to a classification scheme(2), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).

The Henry's Law constant for methyl lactate is estimated as 4.8X10-7 atm-cu m/mole(SRC) derived from its vapor pressure, 3.5 mm Hg(1), and an assigned value for water solubility of 1.00X10+6 mg/L (miscible)(2). This Henry's Law constant indicates that methyl lactate is expected to be essentially nonvolatile from water surfaces(3). Methyl lactate's estimated Henry's Law constant indicates that volatilization from moist soil surfaces is not expected to occur(SRC). Methyl lactate is expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon its vapor pressure(1).

/LABORATORY ANIMALS: Acute Exposure/ Methyl Lactate was not irritating to guinea pig eyes.

/LABORATORY ANIMALS: Acute Exposure/ Methyl Lactate. The estimated average lethal dose for the female rat (either albino, Wistar, or Glaxo-Wistar) following IP injection of laboratory grade Methyl Lactate was >2000 mg/kg. Observations included /CNS depression/, respiratory distress, and peritoneal adhesions. The estimated maximum nontoxic dose and estimated maximum dose without gross lesions at necropsy was 500 mg/kg.

/LABORATORY ANIMALS: Acute Exposure/ Lactate esters dropped into the eyes of rabbits caused eye irritation. Tested esters that yielded a positive response were ethyl, n-propyl, n-butyl, lauryl, and myristyl lactate. Methyl lactate, however, was classified as non-irritating.

The rate constant for the vapor-phase reaction of methyl lactate with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals has been measured as 2.8X10-12 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(1). This corresponds to an atmospheric half-life of about 6 days at an atmospheric concentration of 5X10+5 hydroxyl radicals per cu cm(2). Methyl lactate is reported to be miscible in water with decomposition(3). A base-catalyzed second-order hydrolysis rate constant of 1.18 L/mole-sec(SRC) was estimated using a structure estimation method for 25 °C(2); this corresponds to half-lives of 68 and 6.8 days at pH values of 7 and 8, respectively(2). Methyl lactate does not contain chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm(4) and, therefore, is not expected to be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(SRC).
