Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Results and discussion

Results: P0 (first parental generation)

General toxicity (P0)

Clinical signs:
no effects observed
Mortality:
no mortality observed
Body weight and weight changes:
effects observed, non-treatment-related
Description (incidence and severity):
The mean body weight of rats from high dose group (1000 mg/kg) was slightly lower than that of from vehicle control group throughout the premating period (for both males and females) and mating period (for males).
The values of mean body weights and mean body weight gain for rats treated with test item at and up to 1000 mg/kg did not differ significantly (p>0.05) from those of the concurrent control group rats during the gestation period and the post-natal lactation period.
Food consumption and compound intake (if feeding study):
no effects observed
Haematological findings:
no effects observed
Clinical biochemistry findings:
no effects observed
Organ weight findings including organ / body weight ratios:
effects observed, non-treatment-related
Histopathological findings: non-neoplastic:
no effects observed

Reproductive function / performance (P0)

Reproductive function: oestrous cycle:
no effects observed
Reproductive performance:
no effects observed
Description (incidence and severity):
There was no treatment related adverse effect on pregnancy rate, gestational length, live births and implantations.

Effect levels (P0)

Key result
Dose descriptor:
NOAEL
Effect level:
ca. 500 mg/kg bw/day (nominal)
Sex:
male/female
Basis for effect level:
body weight and weight gain

Results: F1 generation

General toxicity (F1)

Clinical signs:
no effects observed
Mortality / viability:
no mortality observed

Clinical biochemistry findings:
no effects observed
Organ weight findings including organ / body weight ratios:
no effects observed
