Details on results:
Clinical observations:
No mortality occurred during the study period.

There were no clinical signs of toxicity noted during the
observation period.

Hearing ability, pupillary reflex, static righting reflex
and grip strength were normal in all animals.

The variation in motor activity did not indicate a relation
with treatment.

Laboratory findings:
Haematology:

Haematological parameters of treated rats were not affected.


Clinical biochemistry:

No toxicologically relevant changes occurred in clinical
biochemistry parameters of treated rats.


Any statistically significant changes occurring in clinical
biochemistry parameters were within the range considered
normal for rats of this age and strain and/or occurred in
the absence of a dose-related response. These changes
consisted of higher creatinine and glucose levels in males
at 1000 mg/kg/day and lower sodium levels in males at 450
mg/kg/day. No toxicological relevance was ascribed to these
findings.

Effects in organs:
Necropsy did not reveal any toxicologically relevant
alterations.

Organ weights and organ to body weight ratios of treated
animals were considered to be similar to those of control
animals.

There were no microscopic findings recorded which could be
attributed to treatment with the test substance.
Key result
Dose descriptor:
NOAEL
Effect level:
>= 1 000 mg/kg bw/day (nominal)
Based on:
test mat.
Sex:
male/female
Basis for effect level:
other: No adverse effects at highest dose tested.

Comments:
No toxicologically significant changes in body weights and
body weight gain were noted.

Additional information

In a 28 -day oral repeated dose toxicity study, performed according to OECD/EC/EPA test guidelines, rats in groups of 5/sexe/dose were exposed to 0, 150, 450 and 1000 mg/kg bw/day of Radia 7853 via gavage. These doses were based on a 5 -day range finding study. The following parameters were evaluated: mortality, clinical signs, fob, body weight, food consumpation, haematology, biochemical parameters, macroscopy, organ weights and microscopy. No toxicologically significant changes were noted in any of the parameters investigated in this study. Therefore, a NOAEL of >=1000 mg/kg bw/day was derived.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the available data, the substance does not have to be classified for repeated dose toxicity according to the CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.
