Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

not classified

Remarks:

Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU

Conclusions:

The LD50 of Surfactant E-196 (80% active) dosed as an 20% w/v aqueous dispersion = 3.54 g/kg with no calculable range.
The product is considered to be slightly toxic by ingestion in single doses at very high doses (above limit dose) .

Executive summary:

Oral acute toxicity was tested in 5 male albino Wistar rats with a 20% w/v aqueous dispersion of Butanedioic acid, sulfo-, 1,4 -dicyclohexyl ester, sodium salt (80% purity) at 10000, 5000, 2500 and 1250 mg test item/kg bw. In the 10000 and 5000 mg/kg bw dose group all 5 animals died within 6 hours after dosing. In the 2500 and 1250 mg/kg bw dose group all animals survived the 14 days observation period. In all dose groups signs of intoxication were observed ( diarrhea, lethargy, prostration, comatose) and gross autopsy of the survivors was normal.The LD₅₀ was calculated to be 3540 mg/kg; taking into account that the product contained 80% active ingredient LD ₅₀ is corresponding to 2830 mg act.ingr./kg bw.
