Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information

Acute oral toxicity: Key study: Method according to OECD 401, GLP study. The acute oral toxicity LD50 of the test item in rats was 1110 mg/kg bw (both sexes). Supporting studies: Peer reviewed handbook data reported a LD50 of 400 mg/kg in rats and > 800 mg/kg in mice.

Acute inhalation toxicity: Based on peer-reviewed handbook data, the test item has an acute inhalation LC50 of 159 mg/m3 in rats. Data waiving (study scientifically not necessary / other information available): The substance is not classified for acute inhalatory toxicity, according to Annex VI of CLP Regulation (EC) no. 1272/2008.

Acute dermal toxicity: Based on peer-reviewed handbook data, the test item has an acute dermal LD50 of 10 ml/kg in guinea pigs. Data waiving (study scientifically not necessary / other information available): The substance classified as Acute Toxicity, Category 3, according to Annex VI of CLP Regulation (EC) no. 1272/2008.

Acute toxicity: other routes. Peer reviewed handbook data reports an intraperitoneal acute toxicity LC50 value of 10 mg/kg in rats and an intraperitoneal acute toxicity value > 800 mg/kg in mice.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12 hours light/12 hours dark
Route of administration:
oral: gavage
Vehicle:
olive oil
Details on oral exposure:
VEHICLE: The vehicle and dose selection was based on the results of a preliminary test.
MAXIMUM DOSE VOLUME APPLIED: 5 mL/kg
Doses:
500 (only females), 700, 1000, 1400 and 2000 mg/kg.
No. of animals per sex per dose:
5 male/ 5 female per group

Details on study design:
- Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: Observations of clinical signs and mortality were performed 15, 30 minutes, 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, and 8 hours after administration on the day of administration, and once a day thereafter (up to 14 days). Body weights were recorded on days 0, 7 and 14.

Mortality:
60% of males and females died at concentrations of 1000 and 1400 mg/kg. At 2000 mg/kg, 60% of males and 100% of females died.
Clinical signs:
other: The following clinical signs were observed in both sexes. These signs were increasing in the first eight hours but the survivors recovered completely: decrease of locomotor activity was seen at 1000 mg/kg and above; hypopnoea was detected at 1400 mg/kg an
Gross pathology:
Stomach lesions such as focal thickening of the stomach mucosa, adhesion of the stomach and other abdmoninal organs or ulcer were observed from 700 mg/kg in males and from 500 mg/kg in females at necropsy of the animals after the observation period.
In the dead animal's autopsy, the following observations were made: in the heart, there was atrial stretching; at pulmonary level, congestion, edema and/or bleeding, and endotracheal mucus retention were observed; at stomach level, hemorrhage, stomach erosion, ulcer, distension; bleeding, congestion and/or dilatation of the small intestine were observed and finally, yellowing whitening of the liver.

Interpretation of results:
Category 4 based on GHS criteria
Remarks:
EU criteria.
Conclusions:
The LD50 for the test substance in the Acute Oral Toxicity test was found to be 1110 mg/kg bw for both sexes.
Executive summary:

The Acute Oral Toxicity Test was performed according to OECD Guideline 401 (GLP Study). Four concentrations of the test substance were assayed in five males (700, 1000, 1400 and 2000 mg/kg) and five in females (500, 700, 1000, 1400 and 2000 mg/kg) in a single dose toxicity test in Crj:CD (SD) rats; 5 male and 5 female per group. All animals were subject to daily observations and weekly determinations of body weight. Necropsy was performed on the day of their death or after sacrifice, at the end of the observation period. 60% of males and females died at concentrations of 1000 and 1400 mg/kg. At 2000 mg/kg, 60% of males and 100% of females died. Decreased locomotor activity was seen at 1000 mg/kg and above; hypopnoea and loose stool were detected at 1400 mg/kg and above. These signs increased in the first eight hours but survivors recovered completely. The body weight gain was lower in the 2000 mg/kg male group (females died) and in 1400 mg/kg group in both sexes. Autopsies showed stomach lesions at all doses tested. The LD50 for the test item in rats was found to be 1110 mg/kg bw for both sexes.

Additional information

Acute oral toxicity: Key study. Method according OECD 401 (GLP study). Five male and five female Crj:CD (SD) rats per group were orally administered a single dose of the test item at concentrations of 500 - 2000 mg/kg bw. All animals were subject to daily observations and weekly determinations of body weight; necropsy was performed after animal's death. Based on the results, the acute oral LD50 in male and female rats was determined to be 1110 mg/kg bw. Supporting studies: Peer reviewed handbook data reports a LD50 of 400 mg/kg in rats and > 800 mg/kg in mice.

Acute inhalation toxicity: According to 'Sax’s Dangerous Properties of Industrial Materials. 11th ed. (2004)' (peer reviewed handbook data), the test item has an acute inhalation LC50 of 159 mg/m3 in rats.

Data waiving (study scientifically not necessary / other information available): No further testing on the substance is deemed necessary since there is valid data available to allow classification of the substance according to the rules laid down in Regulation (EC) no. 1272/2008 (CLP). The substance is not classified for acute inhalatory toxicity, according to Annex VI of CLP Regulation (EC) no. 1272/2008.

Acute dermal toxicity: According to 'Sax’s Dangerous Properties of Industrial Materials. 11th ed. (2004)' (peer reviewed handbook data), the test item has an acute dermal LD50 of 10 ml/kg in guinea pigs.

Data waiving (study scientifically not necessary / other information available): No further testing on the substance is deemed necessary since there is valid data available to allow classification of the substance according to the rules laid down in Regulation (EC) no. 1272/2008 (CLP). The substance classified as Acute Toxicity, Category 3, according to Annex VI of CLP Regulation (EC) no. 1272/2008.

Acute toxicity: other routes. Peer reviewed handbook data reports an intraperitoneal acute toxicity LC50 value of 10 mg/kg in rats and an intraperitoneal acute toxicity value > 800 mg/kg in mice.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Acute oral toxicity: Based on the available data, the substance is classified as Acute Tox. Category 4, H302, according to CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.

Acute dermal toxicity: Based on the available data, the substance is classified as Acute Tox. Category 3, H311, according to CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
