Executive summary:

In a limit acute oral toxicity study performed according to the OECD test guideline No. 401 and in compliance with GLP, groups of fasted, 4 -6 weeks old, Crl:CD(SD) rats (5/sex) were administered a single oral dose of ST 06 C 93 diluted in water at 2000 mg/kg bw by gavage. This limit dose was selected based on the absence of mortality and clinical signs in 2 animals/sex/dose (500, 1000 or 2000 mg/kg bw) in the range-finding study.

The animals were observed for mortality, clinical signs and body weight for 14 days and then necropsied for macroscopic observations.

No mortality and no clinical signs were observed throughout the study. There was no adverse effect on bodyweight gain. At necropsy, the submandibular lymph nodes were enlarged and the urinary bladder was distended with fluid in one male. The thymus was red and swollen in one female. No abnormalities were detected in the remaining animals.

 

Oral LD50 Combined > 2000 mg/kg bw

 

Under the test conditions, ST 06 C 93 is not classified according to the Regulation EC No. 1272/2008 (CLP) and to the GHS.

This study is considered as acceptable and satisfies the requirement for acute oral toxicity endpoint.

Justification for type of information:
JUSTIFICATION FOR DATA WAIVING
In accordance with Column 2 of REACH Annex VIII, in addition to the oral route (8.5.1), for substances other than gases, the information mentioned under 8.5.2 (acute toxicity by inhalation) and 8.5.3 (acute toxicity by the dermal route) shall be provided for at least one other route. The choice for the second route will depend on the nature of the substance and the likely route of human exposure. In the present case, inhalation exposure will be lower than dermal exposure because the substance has a low vapour pressure (17.23 Pa at 20°C) and a low freezing point (<-20°C), so the potential for the generation of inhalable forms is low. Dermal exposure is the more likely route of exposure based on physico-chemical properties (Log Kow = 4.68 at 22.5°C, WS = 4.7 mg/L at 20°C).

Executive summary:

In a limit acute dermal toxicity study performed according to the OECD guideline No. 402 and in compliance with GLP, groups of young adult Crl:CD(SD) rats (5/sex) were occlusively exposed to undiluted ST 06 C 93 at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg bw. After a contact period of 24 h, the dressings were removed and the treated skin cleansed with water.

Additional information

Acute toxicity: Oral :

A key study was identified (Toxicol, 1994, rel. 1). In this limit acute oral toxicity study performed according to the OECD test guideline No. 401 and in compliance with GLP, rats were administered a single oral dose of ST 06 C 93 diluted in water at 2000 mg/kg bw by gavage. No mortality and no clinical signs were observed throughout the study. There was no adverse effect on bodyweight gain. At necropsy, the submandibular lymph nodes were enlarged and the urinary bladder was distended with fluid in one male. The thymus was red and swollen in one female. No abnormalities were detected in the remaining animals.

Oral LD50Combined > 2000 mg/kg bw

Acute toxicify: Dermal:

A key study was identified (Toxicol, 1995, rel. 1). In this limit acute dermal toxicity study performed according to the OECD guideline No. 402 and in compliance with GLP, rats were occlusively exposed to undiluted ST 06 C 93 at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg bw. No deaths occurred during the study. All animals maintained a healthy appearance throughout the 15 day observation period. A scab was noted on the head of one male on Day 15 but this was not considered to be treatment related. There was no adverse effect on bodyweight gain in animals of either sex. At necropsy, moderate pelvic dilation of the right kidney and swelling of the left submandibular lymph node were noted on one animal. No abnormalities were detected in the remaining animals. 

Dermal LD50Combined > 2000 mg/kg bw

Acute toxicity: Inhalation:
In accordance with Column 2 of REACH Annex VIII, in addition to the oral route (8.5.1), for substances other than gases, the information mentioned under 8.5.2 (acute toxicity by inhalation) and 8.5.3 (acute toxicity by the dermal route) shall be provided for at least one other route. The choice for the second route will depend on the nature of the substance and the likely route of human exposure. In the present case, inhalation exposure will be lower than dermal exposure because the substance has a low vapour pressure (17.23 Pa at 20°C) and a low freezing point (<-20°C), so the potential for the generation of inhalable forms is low. Dermal exposure is the more likely route of exposure based on physico-chemical properties (Log Kow = 4.68 at 22.5°C, WS = 4.7 mg/L at 20°C).

Justification for classification or non-classification

Harmonised classification:

The substance has no harmonized classification according to the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP).

Self-classification:

Acute toxicity (Oral route):

Based on the available information, the substance is:

- not classified according to the CLP as the LD50 is higher than 2000 mg/kg bw

- not classified according to the GHS as there is neither mortality nor significant clinical signs of toxicity when tested up to Category 4 values.

Acute toxicity (Dermal route):

Based on the available information, the substance is:

- not classified according to the CLP as the LD50 is higher than 2000 mg/kg bw

- not classified according to the GHS as there is neither mortality nor significant clinical signs of toxicity when tested up to Category 4 values.

Acute toxicity (Inhalation):

This information is not available.

Specific target organ toxicity: single exposure (Oral):

The classification criteria according to the CLP and to the GHS as specific target organ toxicant (STOT) – single exposure, oral are not met since no reversible or irreversible adverse health effects were observed immediately or delayed after exposure and no effects were observed at the guidance value (oral) for a Category 1 classification (C≤ 300 mg/kg bw) and at the guidance value (oral) for a Category 2 classification (2000 mg/kg bw≥C > 300 mg/kg bw). No classification is required.

The criteria for Transient Organ effects (STOT-SE Category 3) according to the CLP and to the GHS are not met since narcotic effects were not observed in the acute oral toxicity study.

Specific target organ toxicity: single exposure (Dermal):

The classification criteria according to the CLP and to the GHS as specific target organ toxicant (STOT) – single exposure, dermal are not met since no reversible or irreversible adverse health effects were observed immediately or delayed after exposure and no effects were observed at the guidance value (dermal) for a Category 1 classification (C≤ 1000 mg/kg bw) and at the guidance value (dermal) for a Category 2 classification (2000 mg/kg bw≥C > 1000 mg/kg bw). No classification is required.

The criteria for Transient Organ effects (STOT-SE Category 3) according to the CLP and to the GHS are not met since narcotic effects were not observed in the acute dermal toxicity study.

Specific target organ toxicity: single exposure (Inhalation):

No data was available. However, the registered substance is not a skin or an eye irritant, therefore respiratory tract irritation is not expected.

 

Aspiration hazard:

The substance is not a hydrocarbon and no effects were observed on lungs in oral studies, therefore the criteria for aspiration toxicity according to the CLP and to the GHS are not met.
