TEST ANIMALS
- Source: Kleintierfarm Madoerin AG, CH 4414 Fuellinsdorf / Switzerland.
- Age at study initiation: 10 to 12 weeks.
- Weight at study initiation: males 213 - 227 g; females 179 - 196 g.
- Fasting period before study: animals were fasted for 12 to 18 hours. Food was again presented approximately one hour after dosing.
- Water: ad libitum.
- Acclimation period: 7 days.

Administration / exposure

Route of administration:
oral: gavage

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not classified, according to the CLP Regulation (EC) 1272/2008
Conclusions:
LD50 (female and male) > 5000 mg/kg bw
Executive summary:

The study was performed to assess the acute oral toxicity of the test material following a single oral administration in the KFM-Han. Wistar rat. The method followed the OECD Guidelines No. 401. A group of three fasted females and three fasted males was treated with the test material at a dose level of 5000 m/kg bw. The test material was administered orally in 4 % solution of CMC. Clinical signs were recorded over the 14 days observation period.

No deaths occurred during the test. Sedation, ruffled fur were recorded; rats has recovered within 2 observation days. No macroscopic organ changes were observed.

The acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) of the test material, in the rat, was estimated as being greater than 5000 mg/kg bodyweight.

Conclusion

LD50 (female and male) > 5000 mg/kg bw
