Description of key information
Oral: In the two available studies (and reliable study), the LD50 was determined to be > 2000 mg/kg bw.
Dermal: In the only available (and reliable study), the LD50 was determined to be > 2000 mg/kg bw.
Therefore, the test substance has no acute toxicity regarding oral and dermal routes in the test conditions and should not be classified according to 1272/2008/EC regulation.

- Executive summary:
The Acute Oral Toxicity Test-Fixed Dose for rats was conducted to study the potential toxic effects of ACQUAPOL C1. The product was used in pure form (liquid) and administrated orally to rats that were 8 - 12 weeks old, at the dose of 2000 mg/kg of live weight in the pre-test, and at the dose of 2000 mg/kg of live weight for the final test. The animals were observed for time to death, behavioral changes, clinical signs and macroscopic anatomopathological findings. The final test was conducted with a dose of 2000 mg/kg of live weight, in which the animals do not present clinical signs of toxicity, which allows the product ACQUAPOL C1 to be classified in toxicological class V (Non-toxic) according to the classification table for acute toxicological risk according to GHS-OECD by oral route. Moreover, according to the criteria given in Annex I of Regulation EC/1272/2008, the substance Acacia mearnsi extract should not be classified as hazadous for acute oral toxicity in the testing conditions (LD50 > 2000 mg/kg of live weight).

Additional information
Oral
In the key study and scored as reliability 1 according to Klimisch an acute oral toxicity study conducted according to the OECD Guideline 420 (Acute Oral Toxicity - Fixed Dose Method), groups of fasted, 8 -12 week old Wistar rats (5 females/dose for final test) were given a single oral dose of Acacia mearnsi extract in pure form (liquid form) at dose of 2000 mg/kg bw (limit test) and observed for 14 days.
In
the supporting study, scored
as reliability 2 according to Klimisch, an
acute oral toxicity study (1998), groups of male Balb-C mouse (5/dose)
were given a single oral dose of Acacia mearnsi extract (liquid form) at
doses of 660, 1320, 2630, 5270 and 10530 mg/kg bw (final test
concentrations) and observed for 7 days.
Both studies concluded:
Oral LD50 Combined (rat and mouse) > 2000 mg/kg bw
Inhalation
In accordance with the column 2 adaptation of column 1, REACH Annex VIII, the acute dermal toxicity study (required in section 8.5.2) is not considered scientifically justified as the oral and dermal exposure routes are the most appropriate to assess the acute toxicity hazard presented by the substance based on its physico-chemical characteristics and use pattern.
Dermal
In the only available study, conducted in accordance with the standardised guideline OECD 402 and thus scored as reliability 1 according to Klimisch, male and female rats (5 per sex) were exposed (approximately 10% of the total body surface, single dose) for 24 hours to a Acacia mearnsi extract (liquid form) concentration of 2000 mg/kg bw. All animals were observed for 14 days after dosing. At the end of the observation period all animals were sacrified and subject to gross necroscopy.
Under the conditions of the present study, single dermal application of the test item Acacia mearnsi extract to rats at a dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight was associated with no mortality and neither signs of toxicity but signs of dermal irritation. However, all signs of irritation were reversible within the observation period.
The dermal LD50 was determinated to be > 2000 mg Acacia mearnsi extract/kg body weight.
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – oral endpoint
Test was performed according to the GLP accreditation and international guideline.
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – inhalation endpoint
A data waiver has been submitted to address this endpoint.
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – dermal endpoint
Only one study is available, the test was performed according to the GLP and international guideline.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Oral
In accordance with the criteria for classification as defined in the annex I of the Regulation 1272/2008/EC, the test material does not meet the criteria for classification for acute oral toxicity.
Dermal
In accordance with the criteria for classification as defined in the annex I of the Regulation 1272/2008/EC, the test material does not meet the criteria for classification for acute dermal toxicity.Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
