Additional information

Acute toxicity: oral

The acute toxicity via the oral route was investigated in rats in a study performed according to OECD 423 and in compliance with GLP (hameln, 2017a). A group of 6 female rats was treated with the limit dose of 2000 mg/kg bw of the test substance via oral gavage. The observation period following administration was 14 days. During the study period, no animal died. No clinical signs of toxicity were observed in the surviving animals. All surviving animals showed normal body weight gain. Necropsy did not reveal any macroscopic findings. Thus, the oral LD50 value for female rats was considered to be greater than 2000 mg/kg bw.

Acute toxicity: inhalation

No data on acute inhalation toxicity is required as data on two other routes of exposure, i.e. oral and dermal, are provided.

Acute toxicity: dermal

The acute dermal toxicity was evaluated in rats in accordance with OECD 402 under GLP conditions (hameln, 2017b). Groups of 10 rats (5 males and 5 females) were treated with the test substance dissolved in olive oil at the limit dose of 2000 mg/kg bw under semi-occlusive conditions for 24 h. The animals were observed for a period of 14 days following administration. During the study period, no mortality and no clinical signs of toxicity occurred in any animal. No substance-related findings during necropsy were observed in any animal. No effects on body weight gain were observed with the exception of two females that showed stagnation of body weight between the first and second week. Thus, the dermal LD50 for male and female rats was considered to be greater than the tested limit dose of 2000 mg/kg bw.

Conclusion

Taken together, the available data on oral and dermal acute toxicity do not indicate any relevant acute toxicity.

Justification for classification or non-classification

The available data on acute oral and acute dermal toxicity of the registered substance do not meet the criteria for classification according to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP) and are, therefore, conclusive but not sufficient for classification. Due to the lacking of suitable data, no assessment with respect to acute inhalation toxicity is possible.
