- Executive summary:
In an acute oral toxicity study performed according to the OECD test guideline No. 423 and in compliance with GLP, a group of three fasted female Sprague-Dawley rats received a single oral gavage dose of the test material, formulated in corn oil, at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg bodyweight. As results at this dose level indicated the acute lethal oral dose of the test substance to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bodyweight, in compliance with the study guidelines, a further group of three fasted females was similarly dosed at 2000 mg/kg bodyweight to complete the study.
Clinical signs of reaction to treatment comprised loose faeces seen in five females, urine staining in the perigenital region in three females and post salivation staining, hunched posture, fast breathing, piloerection and distended abdomen observed in individual females dosed at 2000 mg/kg. These signs were seen from approximately one hour after dosing. Recovery of animals, as judged by external appearance and behaviour, was complete by Day 3.
All animals were considered to have achieved satisfactory bodyweight gains throughout the study.
Macroscopic examination at study termination on Day 15 revealed enlarged, swollen or thickened kidneys, pallor of the kidneys and clear fluid in the kidneys in one female. These findings are considered unlikely to be test substance related. No abnormalities were revealed in any of the other five animals at the macroscopic examination at this time.
The acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) of the test material in the female Sprague-Dawley CD strain rat can be estimated from the flow chart from OECD Guideline 423 (Appendix 2d) as being greater than 5000 mg/kg bodyweight.
Under the test conditions, the test material is not classified according to the annex VI of the Regulation EC No. 1272/2008 (CLP).
This study is considered as acceptable and satisfies the requirement for acute oral toxicity endpoint.

In the main study, the test material was administered to 5 males and 5 females. After 24 hours, the dressings were removed and the treated sites were washed with warm water. The animals were observed for 14 days and at the end of this period they were killed and necropsied.
No deaths occurred and all animals remained outwardly healthy throughout the study. There was no adverse effect on bodyweight gain in animals of either sex. Necropsy findings were of low incidence and are considered not to be treatment related.

Additional information
Acute toxicity: oral
A key study was identified on the substance (HLS, 2012). This study was performed according to the OECD test guideline No. 423 and in compliance with GLP. A group of three fasted female rats received a single oral gavage dose of the test material, formulated in corn oil, at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg bodyweight. As results at this dose level indicated the acute lethal oral dose of the test substance to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bodyweight, in compliance with the study guidelines, a further group of three fasted females was similarly dosed at 2000 mg/kg bodyweight to complete the study. Clinical signs of reaction to treatment comprised loose faeces seen in five females, urine staining in the perigenital region in three females and post salivation staining, hunched posture, fast breathing, piloerection and distended abdomen observed in individual females dosed at 2000 mg/kg. These signs were seen from approximately one hour after dosing. Recovery of animals, as judged by external appearance and behaviour, was complete by Day 3. All animals were considered to have achieved satisfactory bodyweight gains throughout the study. Macroscopic examination at study termination on Day 15 revealed enlarged, swollen or thickened kidneys, pallor of the kidneys and clear fluid in the kidneys in one female. These findings are considered unlikely to be test substance related. No abnormalities were revealed in any of the other five animals at the macroscopic examination at this time.
The acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) of the test material in the female Sprague-Dawley CD strain rat was estimated from the flow chart from OECD Guideline 423 (Appendix 2d) as being greater than 5000 mg/kg bodyweight.
Acute toxicity: dermal
No study was available on the substance itself, therefore a read-across approach was used. The source substance is considered adequate for read-across purpose (see Iuclid section 13 for additional justification).
This limit acute dermal toxicity study was performed according to the EU B.3 test method and in compliance with GLP (Toxicol, 1992). No deaths occurred and all rats remained outwardly healthy throughout the study. There was no adverse effect on bodyweight gain in animals of either sex. Necropsy findings were of low incidence and are considered not to be treatment related.
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 less than dermal
exposure because the source substance has a low vapour pressure (1.5 Pa
at 25°C) and the target substance has a low melting 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 = 4.99, WS = 10.3 mg/L, surface-active) and based on
skin irritation properties that may enhance penetration.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Harmonized classification:
The substance has no harmonized classification according to the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
Self classification:
Acute toxicity via Oral route:
Based on the available data, the substance is not classified according to the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 as the LD50 is greater than 5000 mg/kg bw.
Acute toxicity via Dermal route:
Based on the available data, the substance is not classified according to the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 as the LD50 is greater than 2000 mg/kg bw.
Acute toxicity (Inhalation):
No data was available.
Specific target organ toxicity: single exposure (Oral):
The classification criteria according to the Annex VI of the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 as specific target organ toxicant (STOT) – single exposure, oral are not met since no significant health effects were observed immediately or delayed after exposure 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 Annex VI of the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 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 Annex VI of the Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 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 Annex VI of the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 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.
