Results and discussion

Effect levels

Key result

Sex:

male/female

Dose descriptor:

LD50

Effect level:

> 5 000 mg/kg bw

Based on:

test mat.

Mortality:

None of the animals died during the study.

Clinical signs:

No abnormal behaviour or adverse clinical signs were observed. All animals appeared normal throughout the 14 day observation period.

Body weight:

Average bodyweights at the end of the 14 day observation period: 350 g for males; 244 g for females. All animals showed normal bodyweight gain during the study.

Gross pathology:

No gross abnormalities were noted for the animals necropsied at the conclusion of the study.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

other: Not acute harmful

Remarks:

According to EU CLP (EC No. 1272/2008 and its amendments).

Conclusions:

The acute oral toxicity test with the substance showed an LD50 of >5000 mg/kg bw.

Executive summary:

The acute oral toxicity of the substance was determined in a similar to OECDTG 401 study: 10 rats (5 males and 5 females) were administered with the substance at a dose level of 5000 mg/kg bw by oral gavage. No animal died during the study and all animals appeared normal throughout the 14 day observation period. Following necropsy, there were no gross abnormalities found in any of the animals. Based on the results in this study, the acute oral LD50 for the substance in male and female rats was determined to be >5000 mg/kg bw.
