Toxicity screening of Coconut Oil Extracted with Switchable Hydrophilicity Solvent (COCOSHS) and consideration for presence of trace Switchable Hydrophilicity Solvent (SHS) from the extracted oil were assessed by brine shrimp lethality assay (BSLA). Evaluation of the toxicity were also compared to N,N-Dimethylcyclohexylamine (DMCHA) as a pure SHS solvent and pure Crude Coconut Oil (CCO). The total number of dead larvae was counted for each dosage at designated period exposures. For the percent mortalities, COCOSHS and DMCHA were found out to have similar trend of increasing percent mortality
