Description of key information

Acute oral toxicity: 

The acute oral toxicity dose (LD50) was considered based on study conducted for the test chemical. The LD50 value is >2000 mg/kg bw, for acute oral toxicity. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, the given test chemical cannot be classified for acute oral toxicity.

Acute Inhalation Toxicity:

The acute inhalation toxicity study need not be conducted because exposure to humans via inhalation route is not likely taking into account due to the low vapour pressure of the test chemical, which is reported to be 0.060 mmHg. Thus, exposure to inhalable dust, mist and vapour of the chemical is highly unlikely. Therefore this study is considered for waiver.

Acute Dermal toxicity:

The acute dermal toxicity dose (LD50) was considered based on study conducted on rats for the test chemical. The studies concluded that the LD50 value is >2000 mg/kg bw, for acute dermal toxicity. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, the given test chemical cannot be classified for acute dermal toxicity.

Interpretation of results:
other: Not classified
Conclusions:
Acute oral toxicity study of teswt chemical in female rats is as given below:
The acute oral LD50 was 5000 mg/kg body weight.Test chemical is being classified as non toxic by oral administration
Executive summary:

Acute oral toxicity study was conducted for the test compound in female Wistar rats as per OECD No. 423. The animals were fasted for minimum 16-18 hours prior to dosing and for 4 hours post dosing, with food withheld but drinking water provided ad libitum. The time intervals between dosing were determined by the onset, duration and severity of toxic signs. Three rats of group G1 were dosed with starting dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight and the animals showed no mortality post dosing, so another three rats of the same group were dosed with 2000 mg/kg weight and no mortality was observed. Hence, further dosing was stopped. Body weights were recorded on day 0 (prior to dosing), 7 and 14. Mean body weight of animals treated with 2000 mg/kg body weight was observed with gain on day 7 and 14, as compared to day 0. At 2000mg/kg, all the six animals were observed with normal clinical sign till day 14. No external and internal gross pathological examination were seen in all the six animals treated with 2000 mg/kg body weight during terminal sacrifice.The acute oral LD50of test chemical was5000 mg/kgbody weight.

Interpretation of results:
other: Not classified
Conclusions:
The acute dermal median lethal dose of test chemical was > 2000 mg/kg body weight. Test chemical is being classified as non toxic by dermal exposure.
Executive summary:

Acute Dermal Toxicity Study of test chemical was performed inWistar Rats as per OECD No.402. Five male and five female healthy young adult rats were randomly selected and used for conducting acute dermal toxicity study. Ratsfree from injury and irritation of skin were selected for the study. Twenty four hours prior to dermal application of test item, approximately 10% of body surface area of each rat was clipped. A limit dose of 2000 mg/ kg body weight of test item based on the density (0.8417) and latest body weight was applied by single dermal application and observed for 14 days after treatment. On test day 0, calculated amount of test item was applied directly on the intact skin of clipped area of rats; the porous gauze dressing was put on to the intact skin of clipped area. This porous gauze dressing was covered with a non-irritating tape. After the 24-hour application period, the dressings were removed and the skin was gently wiped with distilled water. The skin reactions were assessed. The animals were observed daily for mortality and clinical signs, during the acclimatization period. All animals were observed for clinical signs at approximately 1, 2, 3 and 4 hours after treatment on day 0 and once daily during test days 1-14. Mortality was recorded after application on test day 0 and twice daily during days 1-14 (at least once on the day of sacrifice). Local signs / Skin reactions were observed daily from test days 1-14 (in common with clinical signs). Body weights were re¬corded on day 0 (prior to application) and on day 7 and 14. All animals were necropsied and examined macroscopically. No mortality was observed in any animal till the end of the experimental period. All the animals were observed with normal clinical signs throughout the experimental period. Mean body weight of both males and females were observed with increase on day 7 and 14, as compared to day 0. The external and internal gross pathological observation of all terminally sacrificed animals did not show any pathological abnormality. The acute dermal median lethal dose of test chemical was found to be > 2000 mg/kg bw.

Additional information

Acute oral toxicity:

In different experimental studies, test chemical has been investigated for acute oral toxicity to a greater or lesser extent. Often are the studies based on in-vivo experiments in rodents, i.e. most commonly in rats and mice for test chemical. The studies are summarized as below –

1.Acute oral toxicity study was conducted for the test compound in female Wistar ratsas per OECD No. 423. The animals were fasted for minimum 16-18 hours prior to dosing and for 4 hours post dosing, with food withheld but drinking water provided ad libitum. The time intervals between dosing were determined by the onset, duration and severity of toxic signs. Three rats of group G1 were dosed with starting dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight and the animals showed no mortality post dosing, so another three rats of the same group were dosed with 2000 mg/kg weight and no mortality was observed. Hence, further dosing was stopped. Body weights were recorded on day 0 (prior to dosing), 7 and 14. Mean body weight of animals treated with 2000 mg/kg body weight was observed with gain on day 7 and 14, as compared to day 0. At 2000mg/kg, all the six animals were observed with normal clinical sign till day 14. No external and internal gross pathological examination were seen in all the six animals treated with 2000 mg/kg body weight during terminal sacrifice.The acute oral LD50of test chemical was5000 mg/kgbody weight.

2. Acute oral toxic nature of the test compound was evaluated using rats. The dosing was done by the oral route and mortality was observed.The acute oral median LD50of test chemical was found to be > 5000 mg/Kg bw and hence non toxic by the oral route.

Thus, based on the above summarised studies on test chemical, it can be concluded that LD50 value is >2000 mg/kg bw. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, test chemical cannot be classified for acute oral toxicity.

Acute inhalation toxicity:

The acute inhalation toxicity study need not be conducted because exposure to humans via inhalation route is not likely taking into account due to the low vapour pressure of the test chemical, which is reported to be 0.060 mmHg. Thus, exposure to inhalable dust, mist and vapour of the chemical is highly unlikely. Therefore this study is considered for waiver.

Acute Dermal Toxicity:

 

In an experimental study test chemical has been investigated for acute dermal toxicity to a greater or lesser extent. Often are the studies based on in-vivo experiments in rodents, i.e. most commonly in rabbits for test chemical along with the studies available. The studies are summarized as below -

1.Acute Dermal Toxicity Study of test chemical was performed inWistar Rats as per OECD No.402. Five male and five female healthy young adult rats were randomly selected and used for conducting acute dermal toxicity study. Ratsfree from injury and irritation of skin were selected for the study. Twenty four hours prior to dermal application of test item, approximately 10% of body surface area of each rat was clipped. A limit dose of 2000 mg/ kg body weight of test item based on the density (0.8417) and latest body weight was applied by single dermal application and observed for 14 days after treatment. On test day 0, calculated amount of test item was applied directly on the intact skin of clipped area of rats; the porous gauze dressing was put on to the intact skin of clipped area. This porous gauze dressing was covered with a non-irritating tape. After the 24-hour application period, the dressings were removed and the skin was gently wiped with distilled water. The skin reactions were assessed. The animals were observed daily for mortality and clinical signs, during the acclimatization period. All animals were observed for clinical signs at approximately 1, 2, 3 and 4 hours after treatment on day 0 and once daily during test days 1-14. Mortality was recorded after application on test day 0 and twice daily during days 1-14 (at least once on the day of sacrifice). Local signs / Skin reactions were observed daily from test days 1-14 (in common with clinical signs). Body weights were re¬corded on day 0 (prior to application) and on day 7 and 14. All animals were necropsied and examined macroscopically. No mortality was observed in any animal till the end of the experimental period. All the animals were observed with normal clinical signs throughout the experimental period. Mean body weight of both males and females were observed with increase on day 7 and 14, as compared to day 0. The external and internal gross pathological observation of all terminally sacrificed animals did not show any pathological abnormality. The acute dermal median lethal dose of test chemical was found to be > 2000 mg/kg bw.

2.Acute dermal toxic nature of the test compound was assessed in rabbits. The test chemical was applied at a dose of 5000 mg/Kg bw. No mortality was noted at the tested concentration. The acute dermal median lethal dose (LD50) for the test compound was found to be >5000 mg/Kg bw. Test chemical does not exhibit acute toxicity by the dermal route with the dose mentioned in the study.

Thus, based on the above summarised study on test chemical , it can be concluded that LD50 value is >2000 mg/kg bw. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, test chemical cannot be classified for acute dermal toxicity.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the above studies on test chemical, it can be concluded that LD50 value is >2000 mg/kg bw, for acute oral and acute dermal toxicity. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, the given test chemical cannot be classified for acute oral and acute dermal toxicity. For acute inhalation toxicity wavier was added so, not possible to classify.
