Description of key information
Acute oral toxicity:
The acute oral toxicity dose (LD50) was considered based on different studies conducted on rats for the given test chemical. The LD50 value is 3530 mg/kg bw. The studies concluded that the LD50 value is >2000 mg/kg bw, for acute oral toxicity. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, the given test chemical cannot be classified for acute oral toxicity.
Acute Inhalation Toxicity:
The acute inhalation toxicity study need not be conducted because exposure to humans via inhalation route is not likely taking into account due to low vapour pressure of the test chemical, which is reported to be 1.79E-009 Pa. Thus, exposure to inhalable dust, mist and vapour of the chemical is highly unlikely. Therefore this study is considered for waiver.
Acute Dermal toxicity:
The acute dermal toxicity dose (LD50) was considered based on study conducted on rabbits for the test chemical. The LD50 value is >5000 mg/kg bw. The study concluded that LD50 value is >2000 mg/kg bw, for acute dermal toxicity. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, the given test chemical cannot be classified for acute dermal toxicity.

Additional information
Acute oral toxicity:
In different studies, the given test chemical has been investigated for acute oral toxicity to a greater or lesser extent. Often are the studies based on in-vivo experiments in rodents, i.e. most commonly in rats for the given test chemical. The studies are summarized as below –
The reported study was mentioned in publication, handbook and different authoritative databases and conducted to assess the toxicological profile of the test chemical in 20 rats at the dose concentration of 1.25 - 10 g/kg via oral route. The given test chemical was dissolved in Agar/Tween. The animals were weighed and dosed after a one-week observation. Rats were observed daily for 7 to 14 days, during which time food and water were allowed ad libitum; in some instances, animals were sacrificed and autopsied for gross pathology. 50% mortality was observed at 3530 mg/kg bw. A clinical sign was observed such as ataxia. Hence, the LD50 value was considered to be 3530 mg/kg bw, when rats were treated with the given test chemical via oral route.
The above study is supported with another study mentioned in publication for the given test chemical. The acute oral toxicity study was conducted in 15 rats at the dose concentration of 2.5-10 g/kg via oral route. The given test chemical was dissolved in Water/agar/tween. The animals were weighed and dosed after a one-week observation. Rats were observed daily for 7 to 14 days, during which time food and water were allowed ad libitum; in some instances, animals were sacrificed and autopsied for gross pathology. 50% mortality was observed at 6150 mg/kg bw. Hence, the LD50 value was considered to be 6150 mg/kg bw, when 15 rats were treated with the given test chemical via oral route.
These studies are further supported with the data available in publication for the given test chemical. The acute oral toxicity study was conducted in 30 rats at the dose concentration of 0.2 - 6.4 g/kg via oral route. The given test chemical was dissolved in water. The animals were weighed and dosed after a one-week observation. Rats were observed daily for 7 to 14 days, during which time food and water were allowed ad libitum; in some instances, animals were sacrificed and autopsied for gross pathology. No mortality was observed at 6400 mg/kg bw. Hence, the LD50 value was considered to be >6400 mg/kg bw, when 30 rats were treated with the given test chemical via oral route.
Thus, based on the above summarised studies on test chemical, it can be concluded that LD50 value is >2000 mg/kg bw, for acute oral toxicity. Thus, comparing this value with the criteria of CLP regulation, the given test chemical cannot be classified for acute oral toxicity.
Acute Inhalation Toxicity:
The acute inhalation toxicity study need not be conducted because exposure to humans via inhalation route is not likely taking into account due to low vapour pressure of the test chemical, which is reported to be 1.79E-009 Pa. Thus, exposure to inhalable dust, mist and vapour of the chemical is highly unlikely. Therefore this study is considered for waiver.
Acute Dermal Toxicity:
The reported study was mentioned in publication and conducted by using the given test chemical in 10 albino rabbits at the dose concentration of 5000 mg/kg bw. The test substance was applied to the epilated skin of the back or flanks and held in contact for 18-24 hours; it was then washed off. Observations were made daily for signs of toxicity and irritation. Animals were autopsied following the 5- to 7-day observation period. No mortality was observed at 5000 mg/kg bw. There were no gross signs of toxicity or irritation throughout the observation period. Autopsy revealed one animal with congested kidneys. Hence, the LD50 value was considered to be >5000 mg/kg bw, when 10 albino rabbits were treated with the given test chemical via dermal route.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the above studies for the test chemical, it can be concluded that LD50 value is >2000 mg/kg bw, for acute oral toxicity and acute dermal toxicity. Thus, comparing these values with the criteria of CLP regulation, the given test chemical cannot be classified for acute oral and acute dermal toxicity. For acute inhalation toxicity wavier was added so, not possible to classify.
