Acute Toxicity: inhalation
Administrative data
- Endpoint:
- acute toxicity: inhalation
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 1974
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: see 'Remark'
- Remarks:
- The study predates respective OECD guidelines and Good Laboratory Practices but was conducted according to regulations for the Enforcement of the Federal Hazardous Substances Act (USA). The main limitations of the study are the exposure duration which was restricted to one hour and the lack of determination of the actual exposure concentrations. There were no details on the exposure conditions and in particular on the particle-size distribution of the generated aerosol.

GENERATION OF TEST ATMOSPHERE / CHAMBER DESCRIPTION
- Exposure apparatus: chamber consisted of a glass jar fitted with a plexiglass lid.
- Exposure chamber volume: 29 cm in diameter and 30 cm deep.
- Source and rate of air: The lid contained air intake and exit tubes positioned at the top and bottom of the chamber, respectively. air flow was 10 l/min.
- System of generating particulates/aerosols: The sample was introduced into the chamber atmosphere by using a Preval pack and a series of one or two second sprays approximately every 30 seconds.
No other data available.
TEST ATMOSPHERE
- No analytical measures were performed.
- Particle size distribution and Mass median aerodynamic diameter were not determined.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- other: No indication of toxic potential by inhalation
- Remarks:
- Criteria used for interpretation of results: expert judgment
- Conclusions:
- The 1 hour LC50 was found to exceed 180 mg/l. No mortalities occurred and the symptomatology restricted to the day of exposure did not indicate a toxic potential by inhalation.
- Executive summary:
The acute inhalation toxicity of the test item (DHTDMAC, 75% active in isopropanol/water) was assessed in male albino rats using a technique from the US Federal Hazardous Substances Regulations specified in the Revised, Federal Register, september 17, 1964. The study predates GLP requirements.
A group of ten rats were exposed whole-body to the test item in an inhalation chamber for 1 hour. The nominal concentration of the test item in the chamber atmosphere was calculated to be 180 mg/l of mist.
At the end of the exposure period, the animals were removed from the chamber. The animals were observed continuously for appearance and behavior during the exposure period and at regular intervals thereafter for a total of 14 days. Rats were subjected to gross necropsy at the end of the study.
No mortalities were recorded at any time. Clinical signs were only present on the day of exposure and included, excess salivation, serosanguineous stains around the nose, laboured respiration and damp/wet coats. For the remainder of the study, all rats exhibited normal behaviour and appearance. Necropsy revealed no significant gross pathological alterations.
The acute LC50 was determined to be greater than 180 mg/l after 1 hour exposure.
