Results and discussion

Effect levels
Key result
Sex:
male/female
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
> 2 000 mg/kg bw
Based on:
test mat.
Remarks on result:
not determinable due to absence of adverse toxic effects
Mortality:
All rats survived the observation period.
Clinical signs:
Retention of feces was observed in two female rats on day 2 of the study. No other signs of intoxication were observed after treatment.
Body weight:
Body weight development of treated rats was normal.
Gross pathology:
In the rats, which were all sacrified at the end of the observation period, no organ alterations were seen.

Any other information on results incl. tables

Study design

The test material was tested for acute toxicity in rats after single oral administration of 2000 mg/kg body weight. Directly before administration the test material was prepared with aqueous Methocel K4M Premium solution as the vehicle. The study was performed according to the OECD Guideline for Testing of Chemicals, No. 401.

Results

The investigation was performed as limit test (2000 mg/kg). Retention of feces was observed in two female rats on day 2 of the study. No other signs of intoxication and no mortality were observed after treatment. There was no need for a LD50 determination.

Conclusion

For regulatory purposes, the median lethal dose (LD50) for males and females, after an observation period of 15 days, may be listed as >2000 mg/kg.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Based on the result of this study, it is concluded that the test material has no acute toxic potential and that the LD50 value is higher than 2000 mg/kg bw after single oral administration in rats.
Executive summary:

This study was performed according to GLP and is fully compliant OECD TG 401. Based on the result of this study, it is concluded that the test material has no acute toxic potential and that the LD50 value is higher than 2000 mg/kg bw after single oral administration in rats.
