Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:

10 CD®(Sprague-Dawley derived) young adult Albino rats (approx. 9-12 weeks old at study initiation; females were nulliparous and non-pregnant) were selected for this oral toxicity study. During the equilibration period of 12 days, all animals were checked for viability twice daily. Prior to assignment to study all animals were examined to ascertain suitability for study. Animals were randomly placed in cages upon receipt and were placed on study as available at the time of study initiation. Any animals considered unsuitable because of poor health or outlying body weights were excluded.
The animals were group-housed (6/cage) during the equilibration, and individually housed during the study in suspended, stainless steel with wire mesh bottoms. The room temperature was monitored and recorded twice daily and maintained between 67-76°F. The room humidity was recorded daily and maintained without 30-70%. The room had a light cycle of 12 hours light, 12 hours dark controlled by an automatic timer.
Purina Laboratory Chow and automatic watering system were served throughout the study.

Administration / exposure

Route of administration:

oral: gavage

Vehicle:

unchanged (no vehicle)

Details on oral exposure:

A single dose was administrated to each animal, followed by 14 days of observation

Doses:

single oral dose of 5000 mg/Kg

No. of animals per sex per dose:

5/sex/dose

Control animals:

not specified

Details on study design:

- Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: Viability check twice daily, Pharmacologic and toxicologic signs observed for approximately 1, 2, and 4 hours after dosing and daily thereafter for 14 days. Body weights determined pre-fast, post-fast (just prior to dosing) and on days 7 and 14.
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes. At termination all animals killed by carbon dioxide inhalation and examined grossly.

Remarks on result:

not determinable due to absence of adverse toxic effects

Mortality:

All animals survived throughout the study.

Clinical signs:

other: Signs seen on the day of dosing included urinary and fecal staining, soft stool and evidence of oral discharge. One animal also had decreased food consumption on the day after dosing. All animals were free of any abnormalities from day 4 through terminati

Gross pathology:

Gross post-mortem observations were similar to those seen in control animals killed by carbon dioxide inhalation in this laboratory.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Conclusions:

Based on the lack of adverse treatment-related effects observed, the acute oral LD50 of XP-2563 in rats was determined to be greater than 5000 mg/Kg bw.

Executive summary:

A key Guideline EPA 81 -1 study was conducted to evaluate the oral toxicity of the test material (XP-2563) in rats. 10 young adult CD (Sprague-Dawley) derived rats received the test material as a single dose via oral gavage at 5000 mg/Kg. Pharmacologic and toxicologic signs were evaluated for at approximately 1, 2, and 4 hours after dosing and daily thereafter for 14 days. Body weights determined pre-fast, post-fast (just prior to dosing) and on days 7 and 14. At termination all animals were killed by carbon dioxide inhalation and examined grossly.

No mortality was observed through the study period and signs observed on the day of dosing included urinary and fecal staining, soft stool, and evidence of oral discharge. One animal was observed to have decreased food consumption on the day after dosing. All animals were free of any abnormalities from day 4 through termination of the study on day 14. Based on the lack of adverse treatment-related effects observed, the acute oral LD₅₀ of XP-2563 in rats was determined to be greater than 5000 mg/Kg bw.
