The gas chromatographic and mass spectrometric identification of lactyl lactate and succinyl lactate, both present in human urine, is described. In the gas chromatogram lactyl lactate (as TMS derivative) presented as two peaks: the L,L- and/or D,D-form as well as the D,L- and/or the L,D-enantiomer. Both L- and D-lactyl succinate were excreted simultaneously. Lactyl lactate was observed in many patients; succinyl lactate only a few times and only together with lactyl lactate. No correlation with (endogenous) urinary lactate could be established. Presumably these compounds are products of the intestinal bacteria.

The Expert Panel for Cosmetic Ingredient Safety (Panel) reviewed the safety of 10 alkanoyl lactyl lactate salts. These ingredients have the surfactant function in cosmetics in common. The Panel reviewed data relevant to the safety of these ingredients, and concluded that these 10 ingredients are safe in cosmetics in the present practices of use and concentration described in the safety assessment when formulated to be nonirritating and nonsensitizing, which may be based on a quantitative risk assessment (QRA) or other accepted methodologies.

Organic acids of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) have been determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry in 29 post-mortem samples obtained from infants and 10 samples obtained from hospitalized children, as controls. Though the organic acids profile was similar in the two groups, eight organic acids not observed in CSF from live infants were inconstantly found in post-mortem CSF and for three of them, malic acid, lactyllactic acid and uracile, concentrations were correlated with the delay in sampling.
