Description of key information

Concerning the acute oral toxicity of 2-(Trifluoromethyl)benzenesulfonamide two in vivo studies were performed. One can be assessed as reliable 
without restriction.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Acute toxicity: via oral route

Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method B.1 tris (Acute Oral Toxicity - Acute Toxic Class Method)
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EPA OPPTS 870.1100 (Acute Oral Toxicity)
GLP compliance:

Test type:
acute toxic class method
Limit test:
no
Species:
rat
Strain:
Wistar
Sex:
female
Route of administration:
oral: gavage
Vehicle:
CMC (carboxymethyl cellulose)
Remarks:
0.5 % CMC solution in doubly distilled water
Doses:
2000 mg/kg bw, 300 mg/kg bw
No. of animals per sex per dose:
3 females at 2000 mg/kg bw and 6 females at 300 mg/kg bw.
Control animals:
no
Sex:
female
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
> 300 - < 2 000 mg/kg bw
Based on:
test mat.
Interpretation of results:
harmful
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The median lethal dose of the TS after oral administration was found to be greater than 300 mg/kg and less than 2000 mg/kg body weight in rats.
Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
adverse effect observed
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Quality of whole database:
2 acute oral in vivo studies are available with reliability Klimish 1 and 4.
Both studies comply with the OECD Principles of Good Laboratory Practice (GLP). The Klimish 1 study is used for classification and labelling
purposes.

Acute toxicity: via inhalation route

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no study available

Acute toxicity: via dermal route

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no study available

Additional information

Justification for selection of acute toxicity – oral endpoint
Guideline study 2003

Justification for classification or non-classification

According to the precautionary principle 2-(Trifluoromethyl)benzenesulfonamide a value of greater than 300 mg/kg and less than 2000 mg/kg body weight should be used for classification and labelling.
