No, not even that.  Lauryl sulfate is prepared by
sulfonating/sulfating lauryl alcohol.

Lauryl ether sulfate (laureth sulfate) is prepared by sulfating lauryl
oligo(ethyl ether) alcohol.

What is true is that lauryl oligo(ethyl ether) alcohol is prepared by
ethoxylating lauryl alcohol.

However, the biochemical activity of even sodium lauryl sulfate (known
to biochemists as SDS, sodium dodecyl sulfate) could not be too great,
because it is used in many biochemical experiments, and if it had
profound effects in low conentrations, the results would be invalid.

Typically SDS is used at high concentration as a denaturant in
biochemical systems.  If further work is to be done with the materials
in a native state, the SDS is dialyzed away.  However, scientists are
not too concerned about trace amounts of SDS that may remain, as long
as the concentrations are low enough not to affect the biologic system
being studied.

BTW, I have a patent on a bubble bath formula whose preferred versions
use neither SLS (SDS) nor SLES.  But it's not because of ridiculous
claims of toxicity that I left them out!

BTW, I didn't test on animals because it wouldn't've done me any good.
 However, I have in the past used animals in research where
appropriate.

But at least now you know how I can write authoritatively on this
subject.
