Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 3 based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
The lethal concentration (LD50) value for acute oral toxicity test was considered to be 130 mg/kg bw,when male Royal Hart Wistar rats were treated with test chemical orally.
Executive summary:

Acute oral toxicity study was performed in male Royal Hart Wistar rats using test chemical.50% mortality was observed at dose 130 mg/kg bw. Hence,LD50 value was considered to be 130 mg/kg bw,when rats were treated with test chemical orally.
