Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
study cannot be used for classification
Conclusions:
The acute oral LD50 of FAT 20242/A in rats of both sexes observed over a period of 14 days is >2500 mg/kg bw.
Executive summary:

A study was carried out for the determination of the acute oral LD50 of FAT 20242/A using 80 Tif. RAI rats by following the methodology similar to OECD TG 401. Before administration by oral intubation, FAT 20242/A was suspended in polyethylene glycol (PEG 400). The test material was administered at 1000, 2500, 5000 and 7000 mg/kg bw respectively.

At 1000 mg/kg bw, no mortality was seen. However, 15, 55 and 50 % mortality was seen at 2500, 5000 and 7000 mg/kg bw, respectively. Sedation, dyspnoea, exophthalmos, ruffled fur, diarrhoea, body position (ventral, lateral and curved) and convulsions were the clinical signs observed. The clinical signs reversed by day 8. At necropsy, no substance related gross organ changes were seen. In conclusion, the acute oral LD50 of FAT 20242/A in rats of both sexes observed over a period of 14 days is greater than 2500 mg/kg bw.
