Details on oral exposure:
VEHICLE
- Concentration in vehicle: 20 % suspension
Doses:
7943, 8913, 10000 and 12590 mg/kg

No. of animals per sex per dose:
5 per sex per dose
Control animals:
yes
Details on study design:
- Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations: the animals were observed for clinical signs of intoxication immediately after application (after 30 minutes), 3 hours after application and once a day for 14 days.
- Frequency of weighing: the animals were weighed before the oral administration and during the observation period.
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes.
- Other examinations performed: clinical diagnosis was focused on observation of the appearance of skin, fur, visible mucous membranes, nutritional status, mental activity, somatomotor activity, responses to stimuli, focusing on sensibility and reactivity, lacrimation, assessment function
respiratory, digestive, urogenital and circulatory system. Organs and muscles were examined macroscopically. After dissection internal organs were judged according to their color, size, consistency and structure. If the post-mortem bladder is filled with urine, the urine were carried out biochemical tests indicative indicator strips Heptaphan focusing on the detection of proteins, blood sugars, ketones, bilirubin, urobilinogen and pH.
Statistics:
LD50 is calculated by the probit method according to Bliss. Mortality data used and the frequency and level logarithmic doses were entered into a computer and analyzed by the program PROBIT.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not classified, according to the CLP Regulation (EC) No1272/2008.
Conclusions:
LD50 (male and female): 9476.1 mg/kg bw (6633.27 mg/kg bw based on the active ingredient)
Executive summary:

The substance has been tested for acute toxicity by oral route according to the OECD Guideline 401. 5 male and 5 female Wistar rats per group were tested with the following dose: 0, 7943, 8913, 10000 and 12590 mg/kg.

After 14 days of observation period the rats showed weight loss in all the application doses.

Mortality was observed in doses higher than 7943 mg/kg. After application of the logarithmic dose of 12590 mg/kg the following clinical symptoms of intoxication were observed: coloration of the skin after application and smoot, shiny hair, blue color of the lining of the nose and conjunctivitis, locomotion disorders due to ataxia, hypergie, hyperaesthesia and diarrhea.

Conclusion

LD50 (male and female): 9476.1 mg/kg bw (6633.27 mg/kg bw based on the active ingredient)
