Additional information

Acute oral toxicity:

In different studies, Hydrogen [4-[4-(dimethylamino)-α-(2-hydroxy-3,6-disulphonato-1-naphthyl)benzylidene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene]dimethylammonium, monosodium salt (Green S) has been investigated for acute oral toxicity to a greater or lesser extent. Often are the studies based on in vivo experiments and estimated data in rodents, i.e. most commonly in rats for Hydrogen [4-[4-(dimethylamino)-α-(2-hydroxy-3,6-disulphonato-1-naphthyl)benzylidene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene]dimethylammonium, monosodium salt (Green S). The predicted data using the OECD QSAR toolbox has also been compared with the experimental studies.

In an acute oral toxicity study by Clode et al (Food Chem. Toxic. Vol. 25, No. 12, pp. 969-975, 1987), FAO/WHO Expert Committee (1975) and European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) (EFSA Journal 2010;8(11):1851), rats were treated with Hydrogen [4-[4-(dimethylamino)-α-(2-hydroxy-3,6-disulphonato-1-naphthyl)benzylidene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene]dimethylammonium, monosodium salt (Green S) orally. No mortality was observed at 2000 mg/kg bw in rats. Therefore, LD50 was considered to be > 2000 mg/kg bw in rats.

In another prediction done by SSS (2017) using the OECD QSAR toolbox with log kow as the primary descriptor, the acute oral toxicity was estimated for Hydrogen [4-[4-(dimethylamino)-α-(2-hydroxy-3,6-disulphonato-1-naphthyl)benzylidene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene]dimethylammonium, monosodium salt (Green S). The LD50 was estimated to be 2496 mg/kg bw when Sprague-Dawley male and female rats were orally exposed with Hydrogen [4-[4-(dimethylamino)-α-(2-hydroxy-3,6-disulphonato-1-naphthyl)benzylidene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene]dimethylammonium, monosodium salt (Green S).

Thus based on the above studies and predictions on Hydrogen [4-[4-(dimethylamino)-α-(2-hydroxy-3,6-disulphonato-1-naphthyl)benzylidene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene]dimethylammonium, monosodium salt (Green S), it can be concluded that LD50 value is greater than 2000 mg/kg bw. Thus comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, Hydrogen [4-[4-(dimethylamino)-α-(2-hydroxy-3,6-disulphonato-1-naphthyl)benzylidene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene]dimethylammonium, monosodium salt (Green S) can be Not classified for acute oral toxicity.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the above studies and predictions on Hydrogen [4-[4-(dimethylamino)-α-(2-hydroxy-3,6-disulphonato-1-naphthyl)benzylidene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene]dimethylammonium, monosodium salt (Green S), it can be concluded that LD50 value is greater than 2000 mg/kg bw. Thus comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, Hydrogen [4-[4-(dimethylamino)-α-(2-hydroxy-3,6-disulphonato-1-naphthyl)benzylidene]cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene]dimethylammonium, monosodium salt (Green S) can be Not classified for acute oral toxicity.
