Description of key information

Although the intraperitoneal injection studies in the rat returned results of LD50 male 944 mg/kg bw and female 874 mg/kg bw, which implies a classification of Acute Toxicity 4, they will not be used for classifcation as this is not an accepted route for human exposure.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Acute toxicity: via oral route

Justification for classification or non-classification

Although the intraperitoneal injection studies in the rat returned results of LD50 male 944 mg/kg bw and female 874 mg/kg bw, which implies a classification of Acute Toxicity 4, they will not be used for classifcation as this is not an accepted route for human exposure.

This substance is not classified for acute toxicity.
