The acute oral LD50 in rats was calculated to be 8700 mg/kg. - Executive summary:
Method
After 5 days of acclimatization, groups of 5 male and 5 female rats were given various single doses of test substance (1000, 3000, 6000, 8000, 10000 mg/kg) suspended in carboxymethylcellulose 2 % (CMC). Symptoms and mortality after administration were recorded during an observation period of 15 days.
Results
No mortality was recorded up to a single dose of 6000 mg/kg. At doses of 8000 and 10000 mg/kg, 20 % and 90 % mortality was recorded. The acute oral LD50 in rats was calculated to be 8700 mg/kg. Dose-dependent clinical signs were noted, e.g. decreased motility, hypoventilation, ataxia, diarrhea, venterocumbeny.

LD0 = 2000 mg/kg
LD50 > 2000 mg/kg - Executive summary:
Method
Acute oral toxicity to rats was assessed in a limit test. A single dose of 2000 mg/kg was given by gavage to 10 young adult rats (5 males and 5 females Tif: Rai f). Rats were obserevd daily for 14 days after dosing. Mortality, signs and symptoms were recorded daily; body weight was measured immediately before administration and on days 7 and 14; necropsy was done at the end of the observation period.
Results
No mortality was seen during the 14 -days observation period, thus LD0 = 2000 mg/kg and LD50 > 2000 mg/kg.
Clinical signs as piloerection, dyspnea, hunched posture and diarrhea were recorded.

Additional information
No data on target substance was available, thus a read across approach was followed as detailed in section 13. Experimental data on Similar Substance 01 and Similar Substance 02 was used.
A study on Similar Substance 01 was selected as key study, mainly due to the high purity of test sample (91 % of active substance). It was a limit test according to OECD guideline 401. Rats were dosed by gavage 2000 mg/kg bw. No deaths occurred and no remarkable clinical signs and macroscopic changes were noted in both male/female. Accordingly, LD50 > 2000 mg/kg.
In an older test on Similar Substance 01 (66 % of active substance), rats were dosed with 1000 to 10000 mg/kg of test substance and a LD50 of 8700 mg/kg was obtained by probit analysis.
In a study conducted in rats on Similar Substance 02 (10 % of active substance) according to EU method B.1, a LD50 > 2500 mg/kg was found.
Justification for classification or non-classification
According to the CLP Regulation (EC 1272/2008), substances can be allocated to one of four toxicity categories based on acute toxicity by oral, dermal or inhalation route according to numeric criteria. Acute toxicity values are expressed as LD50 (oral, dermal) or LC50 (inhalation) values as well as acute toxicity estimates (ATE).
In available studies in rats, oral LD50 values above 2000 mg/kg bw were found. Accordingly, target substance was not classified for acute oral toxicity in the CLP Regulation (EC 1272/2008).
