Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not classified
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The acute oral LD50 for CAS# 98072-31-2 is greater than 5000 mg/kg.
Executive summary:

The acute oral toxicity of CAS# 98072-31-2 was evaluated when administered to 5 male and 5 female rats by oral gavage at the limit dose of 5000 mg/kg.  Observations were made as to the nature, onset, severity, and duration of toxicological signs 1, 2, 4, and 6 hours after dosing and daily thereafter for 14 days.  Minimal adverse clinical signs were observed.  All animals survived to study termination.  The acute oral LD50 for CAS# 98072-31-2 is greater than 5000 mg/kg.
