Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Not classified
Remarks:
According to EU CLP 1272/2008 and its amendments.
Conclusions:
The acute oral LD50 for the substance in rats was determined to be greater than 5000 mg/kg bw.
Executive summary:

Acute oral toxicity was performed with Beta-pinene similar to the guideline OECD TG 401. Ten male rats were used and they were administered the substance at the dose of 5000 mg/kg bw. One rat of ten died during the study on day 7. No symptoms in rats were observed. The acute oral LD50 for the substance in rats was determined to be greater than 5000 mg/kg bw.
