Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Conclusions:

According to company standards, TK 12871 was practically non- toxic to the rat by this route of administration. Therefore, TK 12871 was not met a category based on GHS criteria.

Executive summary:

This test using the procedures outlined in the CIBA-GEIGY Limited for 810281. A total of 5 male and 5 female Tif:RAIf (SPF) rats were orally dosed with TK 12871, at 5000 mg/kg. The animals recovered within 7 days. All animals were submitted to a necropsy, at the end of the observation period. No gross organ changes were observed. The LD50 of TK 12871 was greater than 5,000 mg/kg. Therefore, the test material is practically non- toxic to the rat by this route of administration.
