Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: classified as harmful (Acute Tox.4) according to the CLP Regulation (EC) No.1272/2008
Conclusions:
The DL50 in male rats (14 days) 1790 mg A.I./ kg (1700-1890).
Executive summary:

The toxicity of the substance after single exposure of rats was evaluated after the exposure of male Wistar rats to the substance at the concentrations 500, 1000, 1500, 1750, 1850, 2000, 2550 mg/kg bw.

The LD50 was found as 1790 mg/kg
