Any other information on results incl. tables

In an acute oral toxicity study the test substance was administered to white male rats.

The animals showed only a diminuated general condition, but no signs of intoxication or mortalities.

The doses tested were: 2.5; 5.0; 10.0 ccm/kg bw. The LD50 was >10.0 ccm/kg bw (corresponds to 9260 mg/kg at a density of 0.926 g/cm³).

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The LD50 of this substance to the rat was determined to be >9,260 mg/kg bw.
Executive summary:

In an acute oral toxicity study the test substance was administered to white male rats. The animals showed only reduced general condition, but no specific signs of intoxication or mortalities. The doses tested were: 2.5; 5.0; 10.0 ccm/kg bw. The LD50 was >10.0 ccm/kg bw (corresponds to 9260 mg/kg at a density of 0.926 g/cm³)
