Furthermore, macroscopic examinations at necropsy revealed no abnormalities. Based on these observations the LD50 of the test material was determined to be > 2000 mg/kg bw in both male and female rats.

Additional information
ORAL
The acute oral toxicity of the test material was determined in a key study by de Jouffrey (1995). The study was conducted under GLP conditions in accordance with the standardised guidelines OECD 401 and EU method B.1, using the fixed dose procedure.
Five male and 5 female Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to the test material at 2000 mg/kg bw via oral gavage. The test material was dosed at 10 mL/kg bw in distilled water.
Under the conditions of the test, no overt signs of toxicity or mortality were observed in any of the treated animals, and body weight gain was normal. Furthermore, macroscopic examinations at necropsy revealed no abnormalities. Based on these observations the LD50 of the test material was determined to be > 2000 mg/kg bw in both male and female rats.
DERMAL
The acute dermal toxicity of the test material was determined in a key study by de Jouffery (1996). The study was conducted under GLP conditions in accordance with the standardised guidelines OECD 402 and EU method B.3, using the fixed dose procedure.
Five male and 5 female Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to the test material at 2000 mg/kg bw applied in its original form under a semi-occlusive dressing.
Under the conditions of the test, no overt signs of toxicity or mortality were observed in any of the treated animal. Body weight again was slightly decreased in females in the first week only, whereas male body weight gain was not affected. Macroscopic examinations at necropsy revealed no abnormalities.
Based on these observations the LD50 of the test material was determined to be > 2000 mg/kg bw in both male and female rats.
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – oral endpoint
This is the only available study that addresses acute oral toxicity of the test material.
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – dermal endpoint
