Key value for chemical safety assessment

Acute toxicity: via oral route

Link to relevant study records
Reference
Endpoint:
acute toxicity: oral
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: see 'Remark'
Remarks:
The information of this endpoint has been provided by ECHA as a result of an inquiry, thus the full access to data in the report is not accessible to the registrant. However the reliability is estimated to be at level 1: Study conducted in accordance with generally accepted scientific principles. Possible deficiencies do not affect the quality of relevant results.
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
other: OECD Guideline 401 (1987) 21 CFR 58 (FDA) C(81)30 (Final) (OECD)
GLP compliance:
yes
Test type:
standard acute method
Limit test:
yes
Species:
other: Albino rat
Vehicle:
corn oil
Sex:
male/female
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
>= 5 000 mg/kg bw
Mortality:
Male: 5000 mg/kg bw; Number of animals: 5; Number of deaths: 0
Female: 5000 mg/kg bw; Number of animals: 5; Number of deaths: 0
Clinical signs:
other: Signs of toxicity related to dose levels: Soft stools were noted in 2 females on the day of treatment only. This was not considered as remarkable.
Gross pathology:
Effects on organs:
No remarkable findings.
Interpretation of results:
not classified
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The test substance was not acutely toxic to albino rats (LD50 > 5000 mg/kg) in a OECD 401 (1987) test conducted under GLP. The test result is considered as valid.
Executive summary:

The substance was not acutely toxic to albino rats (LD50 > 5000 mg/kg) in an OECD 401 test conducted under GLP. The test result is considered as valid.

Additional information

Justification for selection of acute toxicity – oral endpoint
A valid GLP study. Another valid supporting study with the same test result.

Justification for selection of acute toxicity – inhalation endpoint
The substance we register as importer is included as an additive in a polymer matrix. The pure substance as such is not available; this route of exposure is not likely.

Justification for selection of acute toxicity – dermal endpoint
A valid OECD 402 and EU B.3 test conducted under GLP. Another valid supporting study with the same test result.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Available GLP studies show consistently that the substance is not acutely toxic via oral nor dermal route.
