Description of key information

Acute toxicity: oral.

Key study: OECD 423 and EU method B.1 tris. GLP study. The LD50 was found to be betwwen 300 and 2000 mg/kg bw, the LD50 cut-off of the test item may be considered as 500 mg/kg body weight by oral route in the rat.

Acute toxicity: inhalation.

Data waiving (study not necessary / other information available): The study does not need to be conducted because there is availabe data on oral and dermal acute toxicity of the substance.

Acute toxicity: dermal.

Key study: OECD 402 and EU B.3. GLP study. The dermal LD50 of the test item in rats is greater than 2000 mg/kg bw. Erythema was noted at 48h, but it was fully reversible at Day 3.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Route of administration:
oral: gavage
Vehicle:

Details on oral exposure:
VEHICLE
- Concentration in vehicle: In first step, test item was administered corresponding to 2g/kg, according to the calculated density. In second and third step, 0.27 mL of the test item (corresponding to 300 mg) were added to 1.54 mL of olive oil.
- Amount of vehicle (if gavage): 1.81 mL/kg.
- Justification for choice of vehicle: it produced the most suitable formulation at the requested concentration.

- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes.
At the end of the study, the animals were anaesthetised with sodium pentobarbital and administration continued to fatal levels. Macroscopic observations were entered on individual autopsy sheets.

Interpretation of results:
Category 4 based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
The LD50 of the test item is higher than 300 mg/kg bw and lower than 2000 mg/kg body weight by oral route in the rat. The LD50 cut-off of the test item may be considered as 500 mg/kg body weight by oral route in the rat.
Executive summary:

The acute oral toxicity of the test item has been tested in accordance with OECD 423 and EU method B.1 tris, following GLP. The test item was administered, as supplied, to a group of 3 female Sprague-Dawley rats at the dose of 2000 mg/kg and 6 female Sprague-dawley rats at the dose of 300 mg/kg body weitght by oral gavage. At the highest dose, all three animals died (3/3), two at 24 hours post dose and one other at 48 hours post dose. The mortalities were preceded by an absence or decrease in spontaneous activity (3/3), muscles tones (3/3), righting reflex (3/3), Preyer's reflex (3/3), associated with bradypnea (3/3), dyspnea (1/3), hypothermia (3/3), eyes partly (2/3) or totally (2/3) closed, mydriasis (3/3), an increase of salivation (1/3) and piloerection (1/3). Rigor mortis were noted before the necropsy (3/3). The macroscopic examination of the animals revealed a thinning of a forestomach and corpus (1/3), a swelling of the stomach (2/3), red coloration of a forestomach and corpus (2/3). Furthermore, cellular lysis of main organs in the abdomen was noted (2/3). At the dose of 300 mg/kg, no mortality occurred during the study and the body weight evolution of the animals remained normal during the study. Furthermore, no clinical signs related to the administration of the test item were observed during the study. The macroscopic examination of the animals at the end of the study did not reveal treatment related changes. The LD50 of the test item is higher than 300 mg/kg bw and lower than 2000 mg/kg body weight by oral route in the rat. The LD50 cut-off of the test item may be considered as 500 mg/kg body weight by oral route in the rat. Based on the available information, the test item has to be classified in category 4 according to CLP Regulation (EC) no. 1272/2008.

No systemic clinical signs related to the administration of the test item were observed.
Erythema was noted in treated females (5/5) at 48 hours post dose. This reaction was totally reversible at day 3.
Despite this rinse of the treated area (with distilled water and then with liquid paraffin), residual test item was noted on the treated area at 24 and 48 hours post-dose in treated females and at 24 hours post-dose in treated females and at 24 hours post-dose in treated males.
See more details in Tables 1 to 4.
Body weight:
The body weitght evolution of the animals remained normal throughout the study.
See complete details in Table 5.
Gross pathology:
The macroscopic examination of the animals at the end of the study did not reveal treatment-realted changes.
See more details in Table 6 and 7.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The dermal LD50 of the test item in rats is greater than 2000 mg/kg bw.
Executive summary:

A limit test was performed to determine the acute dermal toxicity of the test item in rats according to OECD 402 and EU method B.3, following GLP. The test item was applied onto the intact skin of 10 Sprague Dawley rats (5 males, 5 females) at a dose of 2000 mg/kg bw. All animals were observed once daily for 14 days, survival and body weight were monitored. All animals werte examined macroscopically at the end of the study. There were no mortality ans systemic clinical signs related to the administration of the test irem during the study. Erythema was noted in treated females (5/5) at 48 hours post dose and the reaction was reversible at day 3. Residual test item was also noted on the treated area at 24 and 48 hours post-dose in treated females and at 24 hours post-dose in treated males. Normal changes in body weights and none macroscopic findings were found. In conclusion, the test item was found to be non toxic by dermal route, with an LD50 higher than 2000 mg/kg bw in rats.

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no adverse effect observed
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Value:
2 000 mg/kg bw
Quality of whole database:
Klimish score 1.

Additional information

Acute toxicity: oral.

Key study: The acute oral toxicity of the test item has been tested in accordance with OECD 423 and EU method B.1 tris, following GLP. The test item was administered, as supplied, to a group of 3 female Sprague-Dawley rats at the dose of 2000 mg/kg and 6 female Sprague-dawley rats at the dose of 300 mg/kg body weitght by oral gavage. At the highest dose, all three animals died (3/3), two at 24 hours post dose and one other at 48 hours post dose. The mortalities were preceded by an absence or decrease in spontaneous activity (3/3), muscles tones (3/3), righting reflex (3/3), Preyer's reflex (3/3), associated with bradypnea (3/3), dyspnea (1/3), hypothermia (3/3), eyes partly (2/3) or totally (2/3) closed, mydriasis (3/3), an increase of salivation (1/3) and piloerection (1/3). Rigor mortis were noted before the necropsy (3/3). The macroscopic examination of the animals revealed a thinning of a forestomach and corpus (1/3), a swelling of the stomach (2/3), red coloration of a forestomach and corpus (2/3). Furthermore, cellular lysis of main organs in the abdomen was noted (2/3). At the dose of 300 mg/kg, no mortality occurred during the study and the body weight evolution of the animals remained normal during the study. Furthermore, no clinical signs related to the administration of the test item were observed during the study. The macroscopic examination of the animals at the end of the study did not reveal treatment related changes. The LD50 of the test item is higher than 300 mg/kg bw and lower than 2000 mg/kg body weight by oral route in the rat. The LD50 cut-off of the test item may be considered as 500 mg/kg body weight by oral route in the rat. Based on the available information, the test item has to be classified in category 4 according to CLP Regulation (EC) no. 1272/2008.

Acute toxicity : dermal.

Key study: A limit test was performed to determine the acute dermal toxicity of the test item in rats according to OECD 402 and EU method B.3, following GLP. The test item was applied onto the intact skin of 10 Sprague Dawley rats (5 males, 5 females) at a dose of 2000 mg/kg bw. All animals were observed once daily for 14 days, survival and body weight were monitored. There were no mortality ans systemic clinical signs related to the administration of the test irem during the study. Erythema was noted in treated females (5/5) at 48 hours post dose and the reaction was reversible at day 3. Residual test item was also noted on the treated area at 24 and 48 hours post-dose in treated females and at 24 hours post-dose in treated males. Normal changes in body weights and none macroscopic findings were found. In conclusion, the test item was found to be non toxic by dermal route, with an LD50 higher than 2000 mg/kg bw in rats.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the available data (300 mg/kg-bw<LD50< 2000 mg/kg-bw), the substance is classified for Acute Oral Toxicity Category 4, H302: Harmful if swallowed, in accordance with CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.

Based on the available data (LD50> 2000 mg/kg-bw), the substance is not classified for Acute Dermal Toxicity in accordance with CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
