Clinical signs:
other: At the 200 mg/kg dose-level, one male was found dead on day 14; hypoactivity, piloerection and hypersalivation were observed in this animal on days 1 and 2, but no clinical signs were noted from day 3. In both surviving males, hypoactivity, piloerection
Gross pathology:
Macroscopic examination of the main organs of the animals revealed no apparent abnormalities.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 4 based on GHS criteria
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
The oral LD50 of the test item DINORAMOX S3 (batch No. 6751) is comprised between 200 and 2000 mg/kg in male rats. Toxicity is comparable in females. Because only 1 male out of 3 male and 3 female rats dosed at 200 mg/kg died on day 14, it is expected that the LD50 value is higher than 300 mg/kg bw but lower than 2000 mg/kg with LD50 cut-off 500 mg/kg; therefore classification in GHS Category IV is warranted.
Executive summary:

At the request of CECA SA, Paris-la-Défense, France, the acute oral toxicity of the test item DINORAMOX S3 (batch No. 6751) was evaluated in rats according to OECD (No. 423, 22 March 1996) and EC (96/54/EC, B.1 ter, 30 July 1996) guidelines. The study was conducted in compliance with the principles of Good Laboratory Practice Regulations. The test item was prepared in corn oil and was administered by oral route (gavage), at a volume of 10 mL/kg, to groups of fasted Sprague-Dawley rats. The study design was as follows: 3 males 200 mg/kg, 3 males 2000 mg/kg, 3 females 200 mg/kg. Clinical signs, mortality and body weight gain were checked for a period of up to 14 days following the single administration of the test item. All animals were subjected to necropsy. At the 200 mg/kg dose-level, one male was found dead on day 14; hypoactivity, piloerection and hypersalivation were observed in this animal on days 1 and 2, but no clinical signs were noted from day 3. In both surviving males, hypoactivity, piloerection and hypersalivation were recorded on days 1 and 2, and recovery was complete on day 3. In females, no mortality occurred. Hypoactivity and piloerection, together with dyspnea on day 2, were observed in all animals on days 1 and 2. Then dyspnea, together with swollen abdomen on days 3 and 4 or noisy breathing between days 12 and 14, was noted in 1/3 females from day 3 to day 5 and from day 12 to day 14. At the 2000 mg/kg, the three males were found dead on day 2; hypoactivity, piloerection and dyspnea were recorded prior to death. When compared to historical control animals, a slightly reduced body weight gain was seen in 2/3 females given 200 mg/kg during the first or second week of the study. The overall body weight gain of both surviving males given 200 mg/kg was not affected by treatment with the test item. At necropsy, no apparent abnormalities were observed. Based on these results, the oral LD50 of the test item DINORAMOX S3 (batch No. 6751) is comprised between 200 and 2000 mg/kg in male rats. Toxicity is comparable in females. Because only 1 male out of 3 male and 3 female rats dosed at 200 mg/kg died on day 14, it is expected that the LD50 value is higher than 300 mg/kg bw but lower than 2000 mg/kg, and according to OECD 423 (2001) the LD50 cut-off = 500 mg/kgbw; therefore classification in GHS-OECD Category IV is warranted.
