(It is identified as sorbes092014rep_final for posting in the pdf document.) In 1985, the Panel determined that a group of seven sorbitan esters were safe as used in cosmetic ingredients. In 2002, the Panel reviewed the safety of an additional 10 sorbitan ester, and issued an addendum to that report, concluding that the sorbitan fatty acid esters were safe as used in cosmet- ic ingredients.

  • Summary Report for Polyoxyethylene Sorbitan Monooleate and Triolate
    European Medicines Agency Veterinary Medicines and Inspections EMEA/CVMP/72503/2006-FINAL March 2006 COMMITTEE FOR MEDICINAL PRODUCTS FOR VETERINARY USE POLYOXYETHYLENE SORBITAN MONOOLEATE AND TRIOLEATE SUMMARY REPORT 1. Polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate (CAS number: 9005-65-6) and polyoxyethylene sorbitan trioleate (CAS number: 9005-70-3) are oleate esters of sorbitol. The chemical name polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate covers the substances known by the commercial names Polysorbate 80, and Polysorbate 81. Polyoxyethylene sorbitan trioleate covers the substance known by the commercial name Polysorbate 85. The substances are used as excipients (emulsifiers and dispersing agents) in medicinal products. They are also widely used as a emulsifiers in foods products and cosmetics. Polysorbate 80 was included in Annex II of Council Regulation (EC) No 2377/90 for all food producing animals under the group “Substances Generally Recognised as Safe” for which no individual assessment was carried out. For the inclusion of substances in the group “Substances Generally Recognised as Safe” the Committee for Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use (CVMP) took into account the following aspects: • pharmacologically active substances used in veterinary medicinal products rapidly metabolised to simple organic metabolites such as carbon dioxide, acetic acid and ethanol; • pharmacologically active substances used in veterinary medicinal products having a low oral bioavailability; • conditions of use of veterinary medicinal products. The Annex II entry for Polysorbate 80 was subsequently modified following a request from a company to include the similar substance Polysorbate 81. The CVMP agreed that Polysorbate 81 would be covered by the assessment and Annex II entry for Polysorbate 80 and recommended that the name be replaced by the chemical name polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate for the substances known as Polysorbate 80 and Polysorbate 81.

  • Revision Date: February 2021 1 SORBITAN MONOOLEATE
    SORBITAN MONOOLEATE POLYOXYETHYLENE DERIVATIVE This dossier on sorbitan monooleate polyoxyethylene derivative presents the most critical studies pertinent to the risk assessment of sorbitan monooleate polyoxyethylene derivative in its use in drilling muds. This dossier does not represent an exhaustive or critical review of all available data. The information presented in this dossier was obtained from the ECHA database that provides information on chemicals that have been registered under the EU REACH (ECHA), and the European Food and Safety Authority (EFSA, 2015). Where possible, study quality was evaluated using the Klimisch scoring system (Klimisch et al., 1997). Screening Assessment Conclusion – Sorbitan monooleate polyoxyethylene is classified as a tier 1 chemical and requires a hazard assessment only. 1 BACKGROUND Sorbitan monooleate polyoxyethylene derivative is a hydrophilic, non-ionic surfactant used as an emulsifier. It is considered a UVCB substance (substance of unknown or variable composition, complex reaction products or biological materials). Based on the substance group types evaluated, the substance is likely to biodegrade, has a low potential to bioaccumulate and, based on its non- ionic surfactant properties will adsorb to soils. Based on read across from a similar substance (sorbitan monolaurate, ethoxylated (1-6.5 moles ethoxylated) [CAS No. 9005-64-5]), acute and chronic toxicities are relatively low. 2 CHEMICAL NAME AND IDENTIFICATION Chemical Name (IUPAC): Sorbitan monooleate polyoxyethylene derivative CAS RN: 9005-65-6 Molecular formula: Not available (UVCB substances) Molecular weight: Not available (UVCB substances) Synonyms: See below. The composition of sorbitan monooleate polyoxyethylene derivative (CAS No. 9005-65-6) is unknown. The CAS No. 9005-65-6 is a generic CAS No.

[PSorba_062015_Rep] In March, 2015, the Panel issued a tentative amended report with a conclusion of safe as used when formulated to be nonirritating. This safety assessment combined 3 previous reports and added new polysorbate ingredients. There were three polysorbate ingredients reported in the VCRP but were not listed in the Dictionary (PEG-20 sorbitan laurate, PEG-20 sorbitan stearate, and PEG-30 sorbitan beeswax). The Council has asserted that PEG-20 sorbitan laurate is another term for polysorbate 20 and PEG-20 sorbitan stearate is another term for polysorbate 60.

    Polysorbates 20 and 80 Used in the Formulation of Protein Biotherapeutics: Structure and Degradation Pathways BRUCE A. KERWIN Department of Pharmaceutics, Amgen Inc., One Amgen Center Dr., Thousand Oaks, California 91320 Received 14 June 2007; revised 9 August 2007; accepted 8 September 2007 Published online in Wiley InterScience (www.interscience.wiley.com). DOI 10.1002/jps.21190 1 1 ABSTRACT: Polysorbates 20 and 80 (Tween 20 and Tween 80) are used in the formulation of biotherapeutic products for both preventing surface adsorption and as stabilizers against protein aggregation. The polysorbates are amphipathic, nonionic surfactants composed of fatty acid esters of polyoxyethylene sorbitan being polyoxyethy- lene sorbitan monolaurate for polysorbate 20 and polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate for polysorbate 80. The polysorbates used in the formulation of biopharmaceuticals are mixtures of different fatty acid esters with the monolaurate fraction of polysorbate 20 making up only 40–60% of the mixture and the monooleate fraction of polysorbate 80 making up >58% of the mixture. The polysorbates undergo autooxidation, cleavage at the ethylene oxide subunits and hydrolysis of the fatty acid ester bond. Autooxidation results in hydroperoxide formation, side-chain cleavage and eventually formation of short chain acids such as formic acid all of which could influence the stability of a biopharmaceutical product. Oxidation of the fatty acid moiety while well described in the literature has not been specifically investigated for polysorbate. This review focuses on the chemical structure of the polysorbates, factors influencing micelle formation and factors and excipients influencing stability and degradation of the polyoxyethylene and fatty acid ester linkages. ß 2007 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
