Additional information

The oral acute toxicity of Peptones Beef has been evaluated by a read across from Protein hydrolysates, animal and hydrolyzed chicken sternal cartilage. All of the animal studies were performed in a manner similar or equivalent to currently established OECD guidelines. Based on the provided data, Peptones Beef are expected to have a low order of acute toxicity by the oral route of exposure. No studies were reported for dermal, and inhalation routes of exposure as the exposition of this substance by these routes is unlikely.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Peptones Beef is a substance minimally toxic via oral route where the LD50 is > 2000 mg/kg. These findings do not warrant classification of Peptones Beef under the new Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 on classification, labeling and packaging of substances and mixtures (CLP) and under the Directive 67/548/EEC for dangerous substances and Directive 1999/45/EC for preparations (DSD/DPD).
