Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

practically nontoxic

Remarks:

Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU

Conclusions:

According to the study results the value of LD50 of the test substance, (R)-(+)-1,1´-Bi-2-naphthol, (in female rats) is higher than 2000 mg/kg of body weight.

Executive summary:

The aim of the study was to investigate acute toxic effects of the test substance, (R)-(+)-1,1´-Bi-2-naphthol, after a single oral administration to Wistar rats.

The testing was performed according to the Method B.1 tris: Acute Oral Toxicity - Acute Toxic Class Method, Council Regulation (EC) No.440/2008, published in O.J. L 142, 2008.

The test substance was administered in a single dose as suspension in vehicle (0.5% methylcelulose), given orally via gavage to groups of three female Wistar rats.

The dosing was performed sequentially in two groups of three females: group No. 1 - first step using the starting dose of 2000 mg/kg of body weight and group No. 2 - second step using the same dose.

The test substance administered at the dose of 2000 mg/kg caused no death of animals.  

No clinical sign of intoxication were observed after application in all six animals.

No pathologic macroscopic changes were diagnosed during pathological examination.

According to the study results the value of LD50 of the test substance for female rats is higher than 2000 mg/kg of body weight.
