EPA/Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics; High Production Volume (HPV) Challenge Program's Robust Summaries and Test Plans. /C6-C10 Aliphatic Aldehydes and Carboxylic Acids/[Available from, as of July 26, 2004: http://www.epa.gov/hpv/pubs/hpvrstp.htm]

Section 8(a) of TSCA requires manufacturers of this chemical substance to report preliminary assessment information concerned with production, exposure, and use to EPA as cited in the preamble in 51 FR 41329. Effective date: 9/30/91; Reporting date: 11/27/91.

Pursuant to section 8(d) of TSCA, EPA promulgated a model Health and Safety Data Reporting Rule. The section 8(d) model rule requires manufacturers, importers, and processors of listed chemical substances and mixtures to submit to EPA copies and lists of unpublished health and safety studies. Nonanal is included on this list. Effective date: 9/30/91; Sunset date: 6/30/98.

NONANAL is an aldehyde. Aldehydes are frequently involved in self-condensation or polymerization reactions. These reactions are exothermic; they are often catalyzed by acid. Aldehydes are readily oxidized to give carboxylic acids. Flammable and/or toxic gases are generated by the combination of aldehydes with azo, diazo compounds, dithiocarbamates, nitrides, and strong reducing agents. Aldehydes can react with air to give first peroxo acids, and ultimately carboxylic acids. These autoxidation reactions are activated by light, catalyzed by salts of transition metals, and are autocatalytic (catalyzed by the products of the reaction). The addition of stabilizers (antioxidants) to shipments of aldehydes retards autoxidation. Polymerizes readily with sulfuric acid and oxidized to nonanoic acid. (NTP, 1992)

EYES: First check the victim for contact lenses and remove if present. Flush victim's eyes with water or normal saline solution for 20 to 30 minutes while simultaneously calling a hospital or poison control center.

TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 40(SRC), determined from a structure estimation method(2), indicates that nonanal is expected to have very high mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of nonanal from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given a Henry's Law constant of 7.3X10-4 atm-cu m/mole(3). Even though the vapor pressure is low environmentally at standard temperature and pressure, 0.37 mm Hg(4), there is a detectable odor; therefore, nonanal may volatilize from dry soil. Utilizing the Japanese MITI test, 44% of the Theoretical BOD was reached in 4 weeks(5) indicating that biodegradation is an important environmental fate process in soil(SRC).

AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 40(SRC), determined from a structure estimation method(2), indicates that nonanal is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is expected(3) based upon a Henry's Law constant of 7.34X10-4 atm-cu m/mole(4). Using this Henry's Law constant and an estimation method(3), volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake are 2 hours and 5 days, respectively(SRC). According to a classification scheme(5), an estimated BCF of 67(SRC), from an estimated log Kow of 3.27(2) and a regression-derived equation(2), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is moderate(SRC). Utilizing the Warburg respirometry test, a theoretical BOD range of 8 to 21% using activated sludge(6) indicating that biodegradation is an important environmental fate process in water(SRC).

ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), nonanal, which has a vapor pressure of 0.37 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase nonanal 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 1 day(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 3.31X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) Nonanal does not contain chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm(3) and, therefore, is not expected to be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(SRC).

Nonanal has been identified as a volatile component in the following food items: common pineapple guava, 0.10 ug/g(1); popcorn, 41 ug/kg(2); rice cakes, 9-11 ppb(3); detected, not quantified in raw but not roasted earth-almond (Cyperus esculentus L.)(4). Concentrations in bisbee delicious apples (1990 harvest date) were 435.5 (8/14), 1474.5 (8/21), 3288.0 (8/24), 222.6 (9/4), 361.2 (9/11), 274.8 (9/18), 83.6 (9/25), and 206.1 (10/2)(5).

It is a volatile component of Idaho Russet Burbank baked potatoes(7); fresh tree-ripened apricots (Prunus armeniaca L.), and plums (Prunus salicina), at not detected to 8, and 14 and 51 ug/kg, respectively(8); and in roasted filberts(9). Nonanal was identified as a volatile component in unpasteurized, fresh orange juice samples at concentrations of 0.022-0.082, 0.087, and 0.025 ppm in mechanically pressed valencia, pineapple, and ambersweet oranges, respectively(10). Concentrations of 0.001, 0.003, 0.003-0.004, 0.007-0.25, trace, and 0.007 ppm were measured in hand pressed valencia, pineapple, hamlin, navel, pera, and ambersweet oranges, respectively(10).

Nonanal has been identified in the head-space at concentrations of 8,880, 9,130, and 24,200 relative peak areas following analysis of frankfurters with 30%, 12%, and 5% fat content, respectively(1). Nonanal has been identified, not quantified as a volatile component in scrambled eggs(2). The compound is one of the aroma components identified in uncured beef and chicken at concentrations of 1.44 and 11.59 mg/kg, respectively(3). Nonanal is one of the volatile components of water-boiled duck meat, duck fat, Cantonese-style roasted duck, and Cantonese-style roasted duck gravy at concentrations of 31.79, 24.97, 8.04, and 48.87 ppb, respectively(4). Nonanal was identified as one of the characteristic odorants in fresh rhizomes of ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe)(5).

IDENTIFICATION AND USE: Nonanal is a colorless liquid. It is not registered for current use in the U.S., but approved pesticide uses may change periodically and so federal, state and local authorities must be consulted for currently approved uses. It is used in perfume industry and as a flavoring agent. HUMAN EXPOSURE AND TOXICITY: Ozone exposure resulted in a significant early increase in nonanal in the airway epithelial lining fluid of humans. Nonanal levels returned to baseline by 18 hr after exposure. Nonanal produced in vitro by ozonation of liposomes induced hemolysis of human red blood cells, and combination of nonanal and H2O2 was significantly more hemolytic than nonanal alone. It was negative for unscheduled DNA synthesis in adult human hepatocytes assay at 3-100 mM. ANIMAL STUDIES: Single dermal dose of nonanal 5 g/kg applied on 3 rabbits with intact skin and 3 rabbits with abraded skin produced one death and severe edema and burns at site of application. There was no evidence of embryotoxicity, fetal toxicity, or teratogenesis when pregnant female rats were given 1500 mg/kg bw/day of nonanoic acid (metabolite of nonanal on days 6-15 of pregnancy. It was positive for sister chromatid exchange in rat hepatocytes at 0.1-100 uM, and negative for unscheduled DNA synthesis in adult rat hepatocytes assay at 3-100 mM. It was positive for forward mutation assay in V79 Chinese hamster lung cells at 0.1-0.3 mM and negative in modified Ames test (preincubation method) using S. typhmiurium TA98, TA100 and TA1535 at 1-666 ug/plate. It was also negative in Ames test using S. typhmiurium TA102 and TA104 at up to 1 mg/plate, and negative in the chromosomal aberration test using rat hepatocytes at 0.4 ug/mL.

Uremic toxins such as nonanal are actively transported into the kidneys via organic ion transporters (especially OAT3). Increased levels of uremic toxins can stimulate the production of reactive oxygen species. This seems to be mediated by the direct binding or inhibition by uremic toxins of the enzyme NADPH oxidase (especially NOX4 which is abundant in the kidneys and heart) (A7868). Reactive oxygen species can induce several different DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) which are involved in the silencing of a protein known as KLOTHO. KLOTHO has been identified as having important roles in anti-aging, mineral metabolism, and vitamin D metabolism. A number of studies have indicated that KLOTHO mRNA and protein levels are reduced during acute or chronic kidney diseases in response to high local levels of reactive oxygen species (A7869).

Nonanal was identified as one of the plant volatiles emitted during the early May blooming period of rape (Brassica napus), with concentrations up to 0.67 ppb/volume reported(1). Nonanal is a volatile component of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) seed(2) and kiwi fruit flowers (Actinidia chinensis)(3). Nonanal was found to be a potent volatile from the Southeast Asian rambutan fruit (Nephelium iappaceum L.), present in the fruits juice at a concentration of 51.90 ug/L(4).

Using a branch enclosure experiment, nonanal was identified as a volatile from 11 of 19 vegetation species from Fernbank Forest, Atlanta, GA(1).[Table#6834]

Nonanal detections in various plants(1).[Table#6835]

As a uremic toxin, this compound can cause uremic syndrome. Uremic syndrome may affect any part of the body and can cause nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, and weight loss. It can also cause changes in mental status, such as confusion, reduced awareness, agitation, psychosis, seizures, and coma. Abnormal bleeding, such as bleeding spontaneously or profusely from a very minor injury can also occur. Heart problems, such as an irregular heartbeat, inflammation in the sac that surrounds the heart (pericarditis), and increased pressure on the heart can be seen in patients with uremic syndrome. Shortness of breath from fluid buildup in the space between the lungs and the chest wall (pleural effusion) can also be present.

EPA has released the first beta version (version 0.5) of the Interactive Chemical Safety for Sustainability (iCSS) Dashboard. The beta version of 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; Click on the "Chemical Explorer" button on the tool bar to see the data./[USEPA; ICSS Dashboard Application; Available from, as of April 22, 2015: http://actor.epa.gov/dashboard/]

Nonanal has been detected in the exhaust of small, medium, and large commercial Chinese restaurant kitchens at concentrations ranging from 68.8 to 111, 15.0-17.4, and 23.7-71.1 ppb, respectively, and in the exhaust of Sichuan Spicy food kitchens at a concentration range of 49.9 to 60.0 ppb(1). Average concentrations for nonanal from Chinese cooking have been reported as 1365, 2281, 4501, and 1373 ng/mg in Cantonese, Sichuan, Dongbei, and Hunan style cooking, respectively(2). Nonanal was detected in the gases sampled from wells and cover soils at a landfill in Tuscany at concentrations ranging from <2 to 523 ppbv(3).

Using a structure estimation method based on molecular connectivity indices(1), the Koc of nonanal can be estimated to be 40(SRC). According to a classification scheme(2), this estimated Koc value suggests that nonanal is expected to have very high mobility in soil.

Nonanal: Does not have an individual approval but may be used under an appropriate group standard

Nonanal is a food additive permitted for direct addition to food for human consumption as a synthetic flavoring substance and adjuvant in accordance with the following conditions: a) they are used in the minimum quantity required to produce their intended effect, and otherwise in accordance with all the principles of good manufacturing practice, and 2) they consist of one or more of the following, used alone or in combination with flavoring substances and adjuvants generally recognized as safe in food, prior-sanctioned for such use, or regulated by an appropriate section in this part.

Section 8(a) of TSCA requires manufacturers of this chemical substance to report preliminary assessment information concerned with production, exposure, and use to EPA as cited in the preamble in 51 FR 41329. Effective date: 9/30/91; Reporting date: 11/27/91.

Pursuant to section 8(d) of TSCA, EPA promulgated a model Health and Safety Data Reporting Rule. The section 8(d) model rule requires manufacturers, importers, and processors of listed chemical substances and mixtures to submit to EPA copies and lists of unpublished health and safety studies. Nonanal is included on this list. Effective date: 9/30/91; Sunset date: 6/30/98.

Aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) specific activity was measured in crude homogenates, post-mitochondrial supernatants, cytosolic and microsomal fractions of /Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)/ liver, using a number of endogenous and xenobiotic aldehydes and both NAD+ and NADP+ as co-factors. All the activity found in the crude homogenate could be accounted for by the sum of the cytosolic and microsomal activities. Highest activities were found with the medium chain length substrates hexanal and nonanal in all fractions. The ,-unsaturated aldehydes, (E,E)-2,4-nonadienal-1-al, and trans, trans-2,4-decadienal, were also good substrates for both fractions, while the hydroxylated , unsaturated trans-4-hydroxy-2-nonenal was a good substrate only for the microsomal fraction. Short chain and aromatic xenobiotic substrates were metabolized at much lower rates, and only the microsomal fraction was effective against acetaldehyde, acrolein, and benzaldehyde. Neither fraction metabolized 2,5-dihydroxy benzaldehyde. NAD+ was the preferred co-factor for most substrates. Apparent affinity (Km) for hexanal and nonanal in the cytosolic fraction were comparable to that found in rats, but the theoretical maximal velocity (Vmax) for these substrates, and the specific activities for the other substrates, were much lower than found in mammals. The biochemical results suggest that trout are well adapted to detoxify products of endogenous lipid peroxidation, but are poorly adapted to detoxify xenobiotic aldehydes.

Uremic toxins tend to accumulate in the blood either through dietary excess or through poor filtration by the kidneys. Most uremic toxins are metabolic waste products and are normally excreted in the urine or feces.
