Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Administrative data

Description of key information

In a well conducted LD50 oral study in rats, 5 g/kg (bw) was adminstered by gavage to a group of 5 male and 5 female SD rats and observed for a period of 15 days for signs of lethality and other overt effects. During the study there were no treatment related effects and the LD50  > 5 g/kg (bw).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Acute toxicity: via oral route

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no adverse effect observed
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Value:
5 000 mg/kg bw
Quality of whole database:
LD50 (oral, rat ) > 5000 mg/kg (bw).Reliability 2.

Acute toxicity: via dermal route

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no adverse effect observed
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Quality of whole database:
LD50 (dermal, rabbit) > 2000 mg/kg (bw). Reliability 2.

Additional information

In a well conducted LD50 oral study in rats, 5 g/kg (bw) was adminstered by gavage to a group of 5 male and 5 female SD rats and observed for a period of 15 days for signs of lethality and other overt effects. During the study there were no treatment related effects and the LD50 > 5 g/kg (bw).

In a well conducted acute dermal study in white New Zealand Albino Rabbits which were dosed 2g/kg (bw). No substance related effects were reported. The LD50 was taken to be greater than 2 g/kg (bw).


Justification for selection of acute toxicity – oral endpoint
Good quality key study

Justification for classification or non-classification

On the basis of the results from the acute oral and dermal study there is no requirement to classify under CLP Regulation (1272/2008) or the Dangerous Substances Directive (67/548/EEC).
