Administration / exposure

Route of administration:
oral: gavage
Vehicle:
other: polyethylene glycol 400
Details on oral exposure:
VEHICLE
- Amount of vehicle (if gavage): 10 + 20 mL/kg body-weight

MAXIMUM DOSE VOLUME APPLIED: 20 mL/kg body weight

DOSAGE PREPARATION:
FAT 80'023/G was diluted to achieve a concentration suitable for the dose levels selected for this test.
Doses:
500; 1000; 2,500 and 5,000 mg/kg body weight
No. of animals per sex per dose:
5
Control animals:
not specified
Details on study design:
- Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: Physical condition and rate of deaths were monitored throughout the whole observation period. Bodyweights were recorded immediately prior to dosing (control weights) and at 7 and 14 days.
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes, at the end of the observation period.
- Other examinations performed: Autopsies of dead animals, whenever they died.
Statistics:
The LD50, including the 95 % confidence limits were calculated by the logit model.

Results and discussion

Effect levels
Sex:
male/female
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
2 287 mg/kg bw
95% CL:
1 607 - 3 876
Mortality:
Males: No mortality was observed in the dose groups of 500, 1000 and 2500 mg/kg body weight. 5 / 5 animlas died within 24 hours in the high dose group of 5000 mg/kg body weight.
Females: No mortality was observed in the low dose group of 500 mg/kg body weight. With 1000 mg/kg body weight one animal died within 3 days. In the 2500 mg/kg body weight dose group one animal died after 3, 4, 5 and 9 days, respectively. In the highest dose group of 5000 mg/kg body weight 3 animals died within 24 hours, one animal within 3 and one within 4 days.
Clinical signs:
other: The surviving animals recovered within 8 to 10 days. 500 mg/kg body weight: dyspnoea (day 1 - 6, slight), exophthalmos (day 1 - 7, slight), ruffeled fur (day 1 - 5, slight), curved body position (day 1 - 3, slight). 1000 mg/kg body weight: sedation (hour
Gross pathology:
No gross organ changes were observed.
Other findings:
No data

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
practically nontoxic
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Based on the test results the substance is considered to be not acute toxic via oral application.
Executive summary:

The acute oral LD50 of FAT 80'0 23/G in rats of both sexes observed over a period of 14 days is 2287 (1607-3876) mg/kg. The test material is therefore not toxic to the rat by this route of administration.
