Uvinul A Plus was not shown to be mutagenic, clastogenic, or phototoxic in vitro . The no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) 200 mg/kg bw/day for maternal toxicity, and 1000 mg/kg bw/day (highest applied dose) for prenatal developmental toxicity .

Food Interaction

No interactions found.

Volume of Distribution

No pharmacokinetic data.

Elimination Route

Based on the findings of a rat study assessing dermal or percutaneous absorption, only a minor amount of diethylamino hydroxybenzoyl hexyl benzoate will undergo percutaneous absorption and most of the compounds will remain in the upper layers of the stratum corneum . In rat and porcine skin, the percutaneous absorption was 0.10 ± 0.12 μg/cm^2 or 0.04 ± 0.05% .

Half Life
