Effect level:
2 021 mg/kg bw
Based on:
test mat.
Mortality:
No mortality occured.
Clinical signs:
other: No clinical symproms were observed.
Gross pathology:
No macroscopic findings in the cranial-, thoracic- and abdominal cavity were found.
Interpretation of results:
not classified
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The oral LD50 value was found to be greater than 2021 mg/kg bw in rats.
Executive summary:

The acute oral toxicity was investigated in one group of 5 fasted male and 5 female Wistar-rats. One (limit) concentration of 2021 mg/kg bw was applied by gavage. Any signs of toxicity were recorded during the 14 days observation period and the animals were subjected to necropsy afterwards. As a result, no mortalities were observed and also no clinical signs were noted. At necropsy, no abnormalities were observed. As a result, the LD50 was determined to be 2021 mg/kg bw.

Additional information

oral:

The acute oral toxicity was investigated in one group of 5 fasted male and 5 female Wistar-rats. One (limit) concentration of 2021 mg/kg bw was applied by gavage. Any signs of toxicity were recorded during the 14 days observation period and the animals were subjected to necropsy afterwards. As a result, no mortalities were observed and also no clinical signs were noted. At necropsy, no abnormalities were observed. In conclusion, the LD50 was determined to be 2021 mg/kg bw.


Justification for selection of acute toxicity – oral endpoint
only one study available

Justification for classification or non-classification

On the basis of the available data the substance is not to be classified for acute toxicity under Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (CLP).
