TEST ANIMALS
- Source: IFFA CREDO breeding centre (69210 Saint-Germain sur l'Arbresle)
- Age at study initiation: 6 - 7 weeks
- Weight at study initiation: 160 - 200 g (males); 140 - 180 g (females)
- Fasting period before study: yes. Animals were fasted for 16 - 20 hours prior to dosing.
- Housing: groups of 2 or 5/cage
- Diet: UAR maintenance feed A04 ad libitum
- Water: ad libitum

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature (°C): 22 ± 3 ºC
- Humidity (%): 30 - 70 %
- Air changes (per hr): 10 changes per hour

Administration / exposure

Route of administration:

oral: unspecified

Vehicle:

unchanged (no vehicle)

Details on oral exposure:

Animals were administered unchanged test material, orally, in the morning (day 0). Control animals received 5.56 mL/kg water and treated animals received 5.00 mL/kg test material.

Doses:

1000, 2500, 5000 mg/kg (preliminary study)
0, 5000 mg/kg (definitive study)

No. of animals per sex per dose:

2 males and 2 females per dose (preliminary study)
5 males and 5 females per dose (definitive study)

Control animals:

yes

Details on study design:

- Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: behaviour and mortality were observed immediately following treatment with the test material and again after 1, 2 and 4 hours. Animals were observed daily thereafter. Body weights were recorded on study days -1, 0, 7 and 14 (and at time of death if the animal survived more than 24 hours).
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes. An autopsy of animals found dead or sacrificed at the end of the observation period was performed.

Statistics:

Not reported.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

not classified

Remarks:

Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU

Conclusions:

Under the conditions of the study, the acute oral LD50 of the test material was determined to be in excess of 5000 mg/kg.

Executive summary:

The acute oral toxicity of the test material was determined in accordance with standardised guidelines OECD 401 and EU Method B.1. In a preliminary study, groups of two male and two female rats were orally dosed 1000, 2500 and 5000 mg/kg test material, respectively. Animals were observed for a period of 14 days following treatment for mortality. Since none of the animals died, the definitive study was conducted with a single group of 5 males and 5 females treated with 50000 mg/kg test material and another group of 5 males and 5 females treated with water alone. During the study none of the animals died, no clinical signs were reported and the bodyweights of the treated animals were comparable to those of the controls. No detectable microscopic anomaly was detected, in any of the animals, at necropsy. Therefore, under the conditions of the study, the acute oral LD50 of the test material was determined to be in excess of 5000 mg/kg.
