Results and discussion

Preliminary study:
Not applicable
Effect levels
Sex:
female
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
> 300 - < 2 000 mg/kg bw
Based on:
test mat.
Remarks on result:
other: No CL calculated
Mortality:
2 animals died after dosing at 2000 mg/kg bw. The third animal was killed for humane reasons on day 2. No mortality occurred in the 6 animals dosed at 300 mg/kg bw.
Clinical signs:
other: Convulsions/tremors, a dirty appearance around the urogenital region, piloerection and pronation were observed in the surviving animal dosed at 2000 mg/kg bw. A dirty appearance around the urogenital region was also observed in three of the 6 animals dose
Gross pathology:
No abnormalities were observed in animals dosed at 300 mg/kg bw. The 2 animals found dead at 2000 mg/kg bw had abnormal stomach contents and one of them had abnormal contents and effects in the gastro-intestinal tract and colour abnormalities of the liver, brain and pituitary. In addition, external examination showed skin/fur staining around the muzzle and/or urogenital region.
Other findings:
No data

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 4 based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
In a guideline study, to GLP, an acute oral LD50 of 300-2000 mg/kg bw was determined following gavage administration of tetraammineplatinum(II) diacetate to female rats.
Executive summary:

The acute oral toxicity of tetraammineplatinum(II) diacetate to female rats was assessed in a study conducted according to OECD Test Guideline 423, and to GLP. A group of three animals received a single gavage dose of the test material at 2000 mg/kg bw. A further group of six animals received a dose of 300 mg/kg bw.

 

At the higher dose two animals died and the third was killed for humane reasons on day 2. Gross pathology of the deceased animals showed effects in the gastrointestinal tract as well as colour abnormalities of the liver, brain and pituitary. No mortality or significant signs of toxicity were observed in any of the animals dosed at 300 mg/kg bw. An acute oral LD50 value of >300 and < 2000 mg/kg bw was determined in female rats.

 

Based on the results of this acute oral rat study, tetraammineplatinum(II) diacetate should be classified for acute oral toxicity (category 4) according to EU CLP criteria (EC 1272/2008).
