Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: CLP criteria not met
Conclusions:
LD50 > 10000 mg/kg bw.
Executive summary:

The acute oral LD50 of test substance in rats of both sexes observed over a period of 14 days is greater than 10000 mg/kg bw. The test material has therefore practically no acute toxicity to the rat by this route of administration.
