Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
practically nontoxic
Conclusions:
LD50 was considered to be 3800 mg/kg bw (3060 – 4710 mg/kg bw ) when male and female rats were treated with α-Santalol orally.
Executive summary:

In a acute oral toxicity study,male and female rats were treated with α-Santalol in the concentration of3800 mg/kg bw orally and observed for 14 days. 50 % mortality observed in treated male and female rats. LD50 was considered to be 3800 mg/kg bw( 3060 – 4710 mg/kg bw) when male and female rats were treated with α-Santalol orally.
