Results and discussion

Preliminary study:
Range finding test:
the test item concentration giving 50% cell viability cannot be assessed. Viability is always higher than 50%. The maximal concentration in the main test has been therefore increased to 35 mg/ml.
Effect levels

Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
ca. 5 181 mg/kg bw
Based on:

Other findings:
The IC50 for test 1 is > 35 mg/ml, leading to LD50 equal to 5181 mg/kg
The IC50 for test 2 is > 35 mg/ml, leading to LD50 equal to 5181 mg/kg

Any other information on results incl. tables

Interpretation of results:

The test has been evaluated in Acute Tox, an integrated in the EU PF6 project on optimization and prevalidation of an in vitro test for predicting human acute orale toxicity.

The NICEATM/ICCVAM Peer review panel report (2006) has confirmed that the test do not allow to predict each of the GHS acute orale toxicity categories. However the test may be used to determine the starting doses for acute oral in vivo toxicity. ICCVAM Test method evaluation report (2006) therefore proposed a regression model, based on rat acute toxicity data, in order to predict LD50 value from the IC50 value obtained withe the 3T3 NRU method.

The regression models are as follow:

Milimole regression model: log LD50 (mmol/kg) = 0.439 log IC (mM) + 0.621

Weight regression model: log LD50 (mg/kg) = 0.372 log IC (µg/ml) + 2.024

EURL ECVAM Recommendation from April 2013 has confirmed that the 3T3 NRU Cytotoxicity Assay can be used in an integrated strategy to support identification of non-classified substances when using a threshold > 2000 mg/kg. This threshold was used for non-classification by EU CLP.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Under the retained experimental conditions, the mean LD50 of the test item is equal to 5181 mg/kg, which is higher than 2000 mg/kg. The test item may be not classified for acute toxicity according to CLP classification.
Executive summary:

Under the retained experimental conditions, the mean LD50 of the test item is equal to 5181 mg/kg, which is higher than 2000 mg/kg. The test item may be not classified for acute toxicity according to CLP classification.
