Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
TEST ANIMALS
- Source: Elevage JANVIER LABS (53940 Le Genest ST Isle-France)
- Females nulliparous and non-pregnant: yes
- Age at study initiation: 8-week old
- Weight at study initiation: mean 201.5g
- Fasting period before study: yes
- Housing: rats were housed by group of three in solid-bottomed clear polycarbonate cages with a stainle ss steel mesh lid. Each cage contains sawdust bedding which was changed at least 2 times a week. Each
cage was installed in conventional air conditioned animal husbandry.
- Diet: foodstuff (ENVIGO - 2016) ad libitum
- Water (e.g. ad libitum): tap-water from public distribution system ad libitum
- Acclimation period:at least 5 days prior to dosing.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature (°C): 19-25ºC
- Humidity (%): 30-70%
- Air changes (per hr): 10 changes per hour
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): twelve hours continuous light (07.00 to 19.00) and twelve hours darkness

IN-LIFE DATES: From: 19 October 2016 To: 02 November 2016
Route of administration:
oral: gavage
Vehicle:
DMSO
Details on oral exposure:
VEHICLE
- Concentration of vehicle :2.0015g/ 10ml bw (fist step),, 2.0030g/10ml bw (second step).
- Amount of vehicle (if gavage): Administrated by gavage under volume of 10mL/kg of teh test item using a suitable graduated syringe fitted with and oesophageal metal canula.
- Justification for choice of vehicle: the most suitable formulation at the requested concentration.

MAXIMUM DOSE VOLUME APPLIED: 10mL/kg body weight

DOSAGE PREPARATION: Test item was weighted and dimethyl sulfoxide was added to two 10 mL volumetric flasks. The preparations were stirred by vortex to obtain colorless solutions just before the admi
nistration.

CLASS METHOD (if applicable) :
- Rationale for the selection of the starting dose: Without preliminary information. The selected starting dose is 2000 mg/kg body weight because it is a limit test.


Doses:
2000 mg/kg body weight of test item
No. of animals per sex per dose:
6
Control animals:
yes
Remarks:
historical data, Study No. TAO423-2016-006
Details on study design:
- Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: Observations = Systemic observations at 30 min,1h, 3h, 4h, 24h, 48h after administration and daily during 14 days.
Weighing = D0 (just before administering the test item) then on D2, D7 and D14.
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes. On D14, the animals were anesthetised with sodium pentobarbital and administration continued to fatal levels. Macroscopic observations were recorded. Only those organs likely to be modified in cases of acute toxicity were examined.
Clinical signs: Spontaneous activity, Preyer’s reflex (noise), Respiratory rate, Convulsions, Tremors, Body temperature, Muscle tone, Palpebral opening, Pupil appearance, Salivation, Lachrymation, Righting reflex, Back hair appearance, mortality.
Gross pathology: On D14, the animals were anaesthetised with sodium pentobarbital and administration continued to fatal levels. Macroscopic observations were entered on individual autopsy sheets.Only those organs likely to be modified in cases of acute toxicity were examined. Parameters examined:Oesophagus, Stomach, Duodenum, Jejunum, Ileon, Caecum, Colon, Rectum, Spleen, Liver, Thymus,Trachea, Lungs, Heart, Kidneys, Urinary Bladder, Ovaries, Uterus, Treatment Area, Adrenals and Pancreas. Only those organ likely to be modified in cases of acute toxicity were examined.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The LD50 of the test item is higher than 2000 mg/kg body weight by oral route in the rat.
Executive summary:

An acute toxic class method test on rats was performed according to OECD Guideline 423 and test method B.1 tris. The test item was administered, as supplied, to a group of 6 female Sprague Dawley rats (8 weeks old, 3 per group) at the dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight by oral gavage. No mortality occurred during the study. A decrease in spontaneous activity (3/6), an increase of salivation (2/6), and myosis (3/6), was noted during the first hours of the test. The animals recovered a normal behaviour at 48 hours post dose. Body weight evolution and macroscopic examinations were normal. In conclusion, the LD50 of the test item is higher than 2000 mg/ kg body weight by oral route in the rat. In accordance with the O.E.C.D. Test Guideline No. 423, the LD50 cut-off of the test item may be considered to be higher than 5000 mg/ kg body weight by oral route in the rat.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the available information (LD50>2000 mg/kg bw), the substance is not classified for acute toxicity according to CLP Regulation (EC) no.1272/2008.
