Additional information

Acute Oral Toxicity:

The oral LD50 was determined to be 3200 mg/kg in male rats (Gabriel, K.L., 1978). Sublethal effects of depression, lethargy, and semi-comatose to comatose states were observed. Survivors appeared normal after 7 days. Necropsy observations were unremarkable, no specific organ toxicity was evident. In accordance with EU CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, classification is not required for acute oral toxicity based on the available data.

Acute Dermal Toxicity :

An LD50 of > 5000 mg/kg was identified via dermal application for male rabbits with an analog EC 224-235-5 (Bullock, CH et al, 1975). Severe erythema and edema noted at 24 hours. Necrotic-appearing areas of lung tissue observed in five rabbits. Further histology of the lungs revealed confluent bronchopneumonia or chronic interstitial pneumonia. In accordance with EU CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, classification is not required for acute dermal toxicity, or specific organ toxicity after single dose, based on the available data.

Justification for classification or non-classification

In accordance with EU CLP (Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008), classification of this substance is not required for acute toxicity.
