- Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
- TEST ANIMALS
- Source: Toxi-Coop Zrt., H-1122 Budapest, Magyar Jakobinusok tere 4B
- Hygienic level at supplier: SPF
- Hygienic level during the study: Standard housing conditions
- Number of animals: 6 animals, 3 animals/group
- Sex: Female, nulliparous and non-pregnant animals
- Age of animals at dosing: Young adult rats, approx. 9-10 weeks old
- Body weight range at dosing: 173-204 g. The maximum difference of individual animal weights from the mean of the treatment group did not exceed 20%.
- Acclimatisation period: At least 19 days
- Animal health: Only healthy animals were used for the test. The health status was certified by the Veterinarian.
- Housing: Group caging (3 animals/cage)
- Cage type: T3H polycarbonate
- Bedding and nesting: “SAFE 3/4-S-FASERN” certified wooden chips and “Sizzle pet” nest material were available to animals during the study.
- Enrichment: Animals were housed by group to allow social interaction and with deep wood sawdust bedding to allow digging and other normal rodent activities.
- Animals received standard laboratory rat diet, ad libitum, and tap water from the municipal supply, as for human consumption from drinking bottles designed for rodents, ad libitum.
- The night before treatment, the animals were fasted. Food, but not water, was withheld overnight. Animals were weighed before dosing. Food was replaced 3 hours after the treatment.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Lighting period: 12 hours daily, from 6.00 a.m. to 6.00 p.m.
- Temperature: 20 – 23 °C (target: 22 ± 3 °C)
- Relative humidity: 38 – 61 % (target: 30 – 70 %)

IN-LIFE DATES: From 06 December 2021 to 21 December 2021
Administration / exposure
- Route of administration:
- oral: gavage
- Vehicle:
- methylcellulose
- Remarks:
- 1% methyl cellulose in distilled water
- Details on oral exposure:
- VEHICLE
- Concentration in vehicle: 200 mg/mL
- Amount of vehicle (if gavage): 10 mL/kg bw
- Justification for choice of vehicle: The test item did not dissolve in distilled water, but formed a homogenous suspension in 1% methyl cellulose solution, which was stable while stirring with magnetic stirrer. Therefore 1% methyl cellulose solution was chosen as vehicle for this study. Details of the vehicle used in the study were as follows:
Component 1
Name: Methylcellulosum
Batch number: 8075546
Manufacturer: Magilab Kft.
Expiry date: 10 July 2022
Component 2
Name: Aqua purificata (Distilled water)
Batch number: 2108-5518
Manufacturer: Parma Produkt Kft.
Expiry date: 18 February 2022
DOSAGE PREPARATION: The test item was freshly formulated in the vehicle at the appropriate concentration (200 mg/mL), in the Pharmacy of NEXTREAT Laboratories on the day of administration. The formulations were stirred with magnetic stirrer up to finishing the treatment.
CLASS METHOD (if applicable)
- Rationale for the selection of the starting dose: As starting dose level for acute toxicity study, a dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight (bw) was selected based on the results of acute oral toxicity studies with Zirconium and propionic acid.
- Initially three animals were treated at the starting dose of 2000 mg/kg bw (Group 1). As no mortality was observed in this group, a confirmatory group (Group 2) was treated at the same dose level. No mortality was observed in this confirmatory dose group, therefore no further testing was required according to the criteria for termination given in Annex 2d of OECD Guideline No. 423. - Doses:
- 2000 mg/kg bw
- No. of animals per sex per dose:
- 6 (3 animals per group)
- Control animals:
- no
- Details on study design:
- - Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Clinical observations: Following the end of the dosage, the animals were observed individually once during the first 30 minutes, at 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 hours after the treatment and once daily for 14 consecutive days thereafter. Individual observations were performed on the skin and fur, eyes and mucous membranes and also respiratory, circulatory, autonomic and central nervous system, somatomotor activity and behaviour pattern. Particular attention was directed to observation of tremors, convulsions, salivation, diarrhoea, lethargy, sleep and coma. The time of death was recorded as precisely as possible.
- Body weight: The body weight of the animals was recorded on Days 0 (prior to dosing), 7 and 14 (prior to necropsy), with a precision of 1 g.
- Necropsy: Animals were subjected to a necropsy and a macroscopic examination. After examination of the external appearance, the cranial, thoracic and abdominal cavities were opened and the appearance of the tissues and organs were observed. All gross macroscopic changes were recorded for each animal. - Statistics:
- The method used was not intended to allow the calculation of a precise LD50 value.
Results and discussion

- female
- Dose descriptor:
- LD50
- Effect level:
- >= 2 000 mg/kg bw
- Based on:
- test mat.
- Remarks on result:
- not determinable due to absence of adverse toxic effects
- Mortality:

- Clinical signs:
- other:
- Body weight:
- lower than 10% body weight loss
- Remarks:
- There were no effects on body weight or body weight gain that could be attributed to treatment with the test item.
- Gross pathology:
- There were no macroscopic changes seen at necropsy.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Remarks:
- The test substance is not classified according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (CLP)
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of this study, the acute oral LD50 value of the test item Zirconium propionate was found to be above 2000 mg/kg bw in female Han:WIST rats.
The study result triggers the following classification/labelling:
- Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (CLP): Unclassified
- GHS (rev. 7) 2017: Unclassified
